One of the most powerful emotional experiences a person can have is to know you are not condemned. Guilt is like a mental load we carry as an individual and to experience forgiveness is to know that load of guilt has been removed. One of the biggest causes of stress is the feeling of regret; we relive past failures, things we wish had never happened. In fact stress and worry over past events can even result in a person contemplating suicide.

If there is anything humanity needs to hear it is this one word, FORGIVEN.!

God sent his Son into a lost world, twisted and contorted by sin, not to condemn or judge it, but to save it with this one powerful message!

“FOR GOD DID NOT SEND HIS SON INTO THE WORLD TO CONDEMN THE WORLD, BUT TO SAVE THE WORLD THROUGH HIM. John 3:17 NIV.

If God has accepted us back into fellowship with himself we must be intrinsically changed. To be righteous and in a state of forgiveness is not a platitude, it is a reality. How sweet then to the sinner’s ears, how reassuring to the believer; Jesus does not condemn.! All we have to do is accept and enjoy the reality of FORGIVENESS! God does not condemn us, neither should we!
