---GOD'S PLAN FOR OUR GUILT~~
---(Please Read/ Romans 8:1-8)--

--Scripture teaches that one aspect of the Holy Spirit’s work is to convict us of sin (John 16:8). His purpose is to turn us from our iniquity and direct us to God.

One example is Peter, who felt great remorse after denying he knew Jesus (Matt. 26:75). Another is Paul, who fell to the ground when Christ came to confront him about his behavior (Acts 9:4). Both men responded to these convicting experiences by repenting and following the Lord.

At one time we all were spiritually dead. Sin’s presence was corrupting our human nature from the inside out, blinding us to spiritual truth. With our will directed towards self and against God, “we were by nature deserving of wrath” (Eph. 2:3 NIV). In other words, we were under condemnation and facing eternal death—God’s required payment for our transgressions. (See Rom. 6:23.) So in our natural state, we were unconnected to the Lord and headed toward eternal separation from Him.

Although we were helpless to change our situation, God had a plan that would satisfy His justice and include us in His family. He sent His Son to be our substitute—to bear our sin and guilt and to die in our place. Not only did Jesus pay our sin debt in full, but His righteousness also becomes ours the moment we place trust in Him.

---The Holy Spirit convicts us of our guilt before God, and, thankfully, we don’t have to be separated from Him now or throughout eternity. Have you received Jesus as your personal Savior? If so, then recognize that your position before the Lord has been changed from guilty to righteous.
--IN TOUCH~~
[ Friend, there is absolutely nothing you could have done that our LORD will not forgive. Jesus died a brutal, painful death on the Cross to take away the sins for each and every person. The enemy of our soul, the devil, wants us to believe that we will never be forgiven. He is the 'father of lies.' Don't believe him, BELIEVE GOD! If you repent of your sins, and ask Jesus to take over your life, He will. God does not merely want to save you. He wants you.
Invite Him to come into your life and He will help you grow to be the person, that He wants you to be. We can not do this on our own because the devil is controlling this world until Jesus returns. BUT, our LORD JESUS is bigger than the devil. Jesus conquered death when He arose from the tomb, after the Romans crucified Him. He is alive right now! He is coming back soon to reclaim His people.
-- "Be ready for no one knows the day or hour the Son of Man will return." -(Matthew 24:42) Jesus is the GOD-MAN. He is God and man. He never ceased being God when He was born of the Virgin Mary. That is why He is called God-Incarnate. He was born of woman through the power of the Holy Spirit. We accept this by FAITH. (Read Romans 10 verses 9 thru 10,13,) and ask the Lord to reveal this to you. "If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;
"For with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.
"For "WHOEVER WILL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED." (Joel 2:32/confirmation of the Old Testament.)
