Every once in a while, I must confirm why Jesus will accept me. I love to ask others: Why will Jesus accept you into His Holy Kingdom? What’s your answer to that?
I’ve been “declared free of guilt”
For the guilty criminal standing there guilty before the judge, there are no better words to hear than the judge’s declaration: “Not guilty.” That is what Jesus says to the guilty-as-sin sinner who comes to Him in repentance.
My terrors in the dark place
Sometimes I live in terror of the dark place. The horror of rejection by my God. I waver and am flooded with old fears. What if Jesus is not Lord and Savior of my sin drenched soul? Where is that safe sweet spot?
