More than Church and Morals

Just when I thought our chance had passed

"There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. (2)For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death (sin=death)....(31)What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? (32)He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? (33)Who shall bring a charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. (34) Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intersession for us. (35) Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?...(37) Yet in all these things we are more than conquerers through Him who loved us. (38)For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels (good and evil) nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, (39)nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

Praise God. Maybe it's not too late. Whether humanly he is able to forgive me or not, God has, and who is he who condemns? Who shall bring a charge against God's elect? I am forgiven, now it only stands on me to keep following him and to put to death the sins of my flesh.

When God forgives, no man can charge. Take and live this promise, for therein is Freedom and life. The past is the past. The past is spent, the present a blank check, the future a promissory note.
