GOD DOESN'T CONDEMN YOU

Did you fall into sin recently and are feeling so bad? Have you done something you said you wouldn’t do? And a voice is telling you there is no hope for you? I’m sure that God doesn’t condemn you. There is a story that will prove this. It is the story of the woman caught in the act of adultery. It was not just a rumour that was carried about her, but she was caught in the very act of sleeping with a man that was not her husband. The scribes and Pharisees were so sure that the woman would die, because it could be proved beyond every reasonable doubt that the woman was an adulterous woman. The law stipulated that such woman should be stoned to death. The mistake they made was that they took the woman to Jesus. Why?  Jesus does not condemn anyone. Rom 8:1 says, “There is now no condemnation to them who are in Christ Jesus.”

The greatest misfortune of the devil is that Christ came to save mankind. No one is under condemnation. God is looking forward with outstretched hand to receive the entire world into his bosom. Christ is looking to receiving you into his mercy hand. He does not condemn you for your sins but he wants you to embrace his Grace. Confess your sins and be blessed. He said to the woman, “go and sin no more.” That is the instruction. Christ is not forgiving you because he wants you to continue in your sins. No. he is forgiving you so that you can change. Let there be a decision in you to sin no more. Decide within you to break away from a lifestyle that is displeasing to Jesus. Decide today to live a life that is committed to the course of Jesus.
