I’m reading the Book of Luke right now and the intrusive thoughts and feelings I get from it is driving me crazy! I can’t pray because of guilt, now I can’t read the Bible? Worst part is, I feel like God is hearing my thoughts and that is ruining my chance of getting into Heaven :(

I believe you have that Courage my friend. I believe the Lord will help you with it. Just read the bible, I know it's hard because I deal with the same thing (mine is a different chapter of the bible though.) read through it ignoring your ocd thoughts, not giving them power. When they come just keep reading. One thing I do use it as a ERP Exercise. I'll take 10-15 mins listening to the chapter I have trouble with while taking a walk. When the thoughts come up I don't react to them. Ride out the anxiety. I keep listneing to the word, no matter how the thoughts get. The Goal for me to do this erp is to lessen the anxiety over time by doing the exposure. You got this and you can read the word and hear the Lord's heart. God bless friend, hope this helps.

Sillybilly I have the same experience as you. It’s with other texts, but it’s the same obsession. The same God that made you and I, made all our shortcomings. We will be better and stronger through learning to overcome. Your thoughts are not always in your control, and he knows that too. They’re ok to have. Especially since they don’t represent your beliefs and they’re just messing with you... but that’s irrelevant, because even if they’re not- everything we have can bring us closer to him. Heaven is filled with beautiful people who try to overcome the challenges g-d has given them- just like you. This is our challenge. And we’re only more beloved because of them

What would it take to be willing to pray and read the Bible despite the guilt?

Yes I do! I use Bible Gateway. I would probably say don't do the Exposure while biking as you should be focused on road when on your bike, but if your just listening to the bible and can handle the multitasking it's up to you. :)
