Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Beyond Just Christian Podcast, Brenna discusses how our belief in Jesus surpasses the guilt we feel due to sin. Using Scriptural references to describe what guilt and belief both mean, Brenna also uses two men as examples of coming humbly before the Lord for mercy. The first man is the father of a demon-possessed boy (Mark 9:14-27), and the second man is a tax collector (Luke 18:9-14). This message is for the individual who…is heavily burdened by their guilt from past or present sinis suffering from guilt, whether their actions were intentional or accidentalis struggling to believe Jesus is stronger than their feelings and disbelieving that Jesus can relieve them of their guiltis struggling to believe that Jesus really did die for the sake of their sins and loves them despite these sinsis aware they cannot save themselfBy the end of this episode, Brenna hopes that listeners remember that God’s love for them is greater than their feelings of guilt and know how to respond when these feelings show up again.Scriptures Mentioned: 1 John 3:20Psalm 32:5Leviticus 5:5Psalm 19:12-13Romans 3:25-26Romans 10:9-11John 3:15-17Mark 9:14-27Luke 18:9-14Matthew 5:5Proverbs 14:92 Corinthians 5:18-19  Self-Reflection Questions:How do I make it a habit of confessing my sin to the Lord without hiding it?How do I become more aware of my sin and turn from sinning deliberately?According to Scripture, how am I set free from guilt and made innocent of sin?
