Condemnation and feelings of guilt can produce crippling effects in our lives. They can cause us to question the validity of God's Word, to lose our ability to live secure and confident lives in faith, and so obstruct the flow of God's grace in our own lives, in prayer, and in ministry to others. Amen
God has given us a path to total freedom and a means of being cleansed of guilt and sin through the blood of Jesus. If we confess our sins to God, we can be set free from the prisons of anxiety, depression, and guilt. Amen
Despite all the Word games, depression is at an all time high in our culture. This is sometimes called the age of anxiety. We violate God's laws, we innately feel guilty. Depression, suicide, anxiety. As witnessed by widespread use of traquilizers, drugs, alcohol suggest people are not immune from the effects of sin. Amen
The key truth here is that God is love. You cannot remove God from the equation of love and still have love. Amen
God is free to love us unconditionally only after the condition of sin has been removed through the blood. The same principle follows through in human relationships. Only people who have experienced beings loved by God who have the love of God in them through the Holy Spirit can truly love others. Amen
God has provided a way for us to be totally accepted and loved by Him. It is through the blood of Jesus Christ that God does away with sin. Since our sin is removed by the blood, we can come to God as a pure being, justified by grace. Amen
It is impossible to earn God's acceptance through actions or behavior. No amount good works can make a person holy or pure enough to be justified in God's sight. Amen
