There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus... Romans 8:1
One of the most difficult Christian's for God to influence is the one
who will not forgive themselves. They remain intimidated by a past-experience and enslaved to the post-experience of guilt. The Gospel of Jesus Christ demands that we beware of any enslaving thought that would provoke a continued indulgence of self-condemnation after one has repented of their sin (Romans 8:1). For one To forgive themselves, they must bring every condemning and condescending thought into captivity to Christ Jesus and begin to think scripturally about the death of Christ (1 Corinthians 2:2; 2 Corinthians 10:5). The only reason why God is justified to forgive sin is the death of His Son, Jesus Christ.

The death of Jesus Christ for our sins was necessary. For we cannot secure the blessing of salvation by virtue of our own righteousness. Either we receive the GIFT of salvation FREELY, or do without it. God's forgiveness is not hindered in the least for all who are in Christ Jesus (1 John 2:1,2). No matter how you feel, no matter what accusations you may wrestle with from within or from without, Jesus Christ will never condemn those He purchased with His blood (period).
Knowing the fact that Jesus Christ is our Savior and friend, will keep us from over-reacting to over-whelming thoughts of guilt. The world's answer to guilt, pressure and suffering is to look for someone to blame, develop a deep desire to escape, deny the problem, or fall into depression. These are not habits we can afford to live with. Outlandish odds will press against you.
No matter what is happening in your life, Christ is eager to forgive and restore. Know that there is certain entrance to a renewed fellowship with your heavenly Father. Your relationship to Christ makes forgiveness desirable and beneficial. Salvation is Christ Crucified; God Satisfied; The Believer Justified.

Cast your burdens on The Lord Jesus Christ
Matthew 11:28-30
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. -Jesus Christ

The truth about the new age
The "new age" is a religious mechanism to change our worldview into an eastern mystical worldview...You give up your mind even though you don't realize you're giving up your mind. -Caryl Matrisciana.
Yoga or Hinduism is the basis of the n
Yoga or Hinduism is the basis of the n
ew age and the father of the new age is satan. It is a doorway that opens you up to demonic possession, as do other new age practices such as meditation, chanting, tarot cards, reiki,etc...There are deceiving spirits out there that will try to fool you into believing they are angels of light bringing you closer to God. They pull you in and trap you in darkness. Don't fall for the lies. Only Jesus is the way to God. "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." -John 14:6 I was deeply involved in these and other occultic practices for years so if you want to talk, I am here ♥
He is waiting for you...
