What is guilt? It is the feeling within a person’s conscience that they have failed to follow the instructions of someone else. Parents instruct small children not to play in the middle of a busy highway. Social rules and regulations help protect us from harm. Every child has a mind that can accept or reject the teaching of parents. As the child grows, they may seek to cover the guilt by pursuit of pleasures or relentless activities because when they stop and think the guilt could take hold. A person that confesses to be a Christian and has no guilt concerning the sins of this life should stop and examine their heart. God in dealing with a person’s guilt affirms, “Their sins and iniquities I remember no more.” What action should an individual take that would allow God to forgive the sins in this life. We must confess our sins unto the Lord Jesus Christ. Scripture says, “If we confess with our mouth and believe in our heart in the saving power of the Lord Jesus Christ we will find forgiveness. Is it evident in your life that you are running from God through the neglect of church attendance, personal prayer, reading the bible and trusting God’s grace!
