If I’m Forgiven, Why Do I Still Feel Guilty of My Sin?

Episode 922 Show Notes 

From the Show

Christ’s blood is more powerful than our sins. It is easy to look at ourselves and fall into self-pity and want to make penance. But alongside the conviction of the Holy Spirit, we need to fix our eyes on Jesus.

If I’m Forgiven, Why Do I Still Feel Guilty of My Sin?

Questions in this Episode

  1. I am almost 18 and I am wondering, how can I focus on growing and maturing into being a godly man?
  2. When I sin, I feel guilty for a long time even after repenting from it. I know that that feeling is a selfish desire, as if I am able to take care of my own sin without Jesus, and then I feel guilty about that as well. I don’t know how to rest in my forgiveness. Do you have any suggestions?
  3. Why is the church not crying out against the war in Ukraine more?
  4. Is the Spirit seated in heaven?
  5. How should I think of pastors who say they have “received a word from the Lord”?
