Have you learned to move on from guilt to the grace that Jesus gave you?

I have spoken to many Christians that are carrying guilt from their past, they believe that they are not good enough to make the rapture.

This is so sad, because Jesus paid for all their sins and put them in the sea of forgetfulness, then He put up a sign that says no fishing. It is finished!!

But as you know the enemy loves to fish where he knows he is forbidden.

The blood of Jesus was enough, He suffered for you and every sin you have ever done, those past sins and future sins are washed away by that precious blood. 

There is not a good deed that you can do, to make a difference, in fact your efforts will do nothing, they are an insult to our Lord who paid it all. 

You cannot earn God's love, you already have it because you are His child.

It is His righteousness that we have inherited, not our own. 
Religion has distorted our salvation in Christ Jesus.

You are made to feel guilty, if you miss a meeting, why weren't you here! We needed your help. etc etc!!

Like with the law of God, the Rabbi's added to the law of God, just as religious people do today. 

They place guilt on you that Jesus never intended you to carry.

We all get so tired of trying to be good, when will we realize it is the work of the Holy Spirit in our life who sanctifies us, not ourselves. 

We cooperate with the Holy Spirit workings in our life. By staying humble and pliable in God's hands as He works within us and on us.

To be sanctified, means we are being prepared for holy use. The Holy Spirit is our teacher. 
We can not do the work that the Holy Spirit wants to do in us. 
We are set aside from the world, for holy use.

Hebrews 2:11
For both He who sanctifies and those being sanctified, are all one, for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren.

We are justified by the blood of Jesus, meaning just as though we had never sinned.  

We are sanctified, set apart for our Master to use, we will be trained by the Holy Spirit. 

Hebrews 10:10
By that we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

Too many of God's children are carrying around an evil conscience, the enemy finds their weakest spot and reminds them of past sins, shut the door on him, apply the blood of Jesus to your mind. You are free in Jesus!!

Hebrews 10:22
Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

God's word is that pure water.

Beloved, never allow the thought to stay in your mind that you are not good enough, none of us were, or are, but God sent Jesus to redeem us. 

Jesus is the only one good enough, He was without sin. He took our place on that cross, so rest in His love, and care for you.


Beloved, move yourself from feeling guilty to feeling and living in God's grace. 
Remember grace and truth came, it is Jesus Himself.  He is Grace and truth.

John 1:17
For the law was given through Moses, but Grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

God Bless your day
Jesus loves you

Love in Jesus
Joy
