“There
is therefore now no condemnation to them which
are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.” Rom 8:1
It
matters not where you’ve been, but where you are; not what you’ve done, but
what you’re doing; not what you where, but who you are! Would have, could have,
should have is the language of condemnation and is quickened with the passivity
of regret. This is a debilitating language; you can’t un-sin you can only
repent. It’s the love of Christ that leads us to repentance (Rom 2:4), not the
judgment of sin. The same finger which wrote the Ten Commandments, and wrote on
the wall, also wrote in the dirt “neither
do I condemn thee” (Jn 8:11). God’s too good to spend another day at war
with yourself; fighting a fight that has already been won.
Satan
knows your name and calls you by your sin; Jesus knows your sin and calls you
by your name.
