Guilty But Blameless

Thought For Today – December 21
Guilty But Blameless!
By Robert A. Searles

     My Father, the best that I know how as a human being, I love you because you have first loved me.  You have poured out your love and tender mercies upon me, and while I Was yet  a sinner, Christ came into the world to save sinners.  Christ died for my sins, he was buried and rose again according to the scriptures.  Now because of your wonderful grace, I am set free from the burden of sin.  I am out of Satan's prison, and I am on my way to heaven to claim my inheritance as a joint heir with Christ.

     No one can bring an accusation against me for - “There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.”  I am guilty but blameless because you have borne the guilt and the shame of my iniquity upon yourself.

     Thank you dear Lord for this wonderful gift of grace, and help me this day to live for you so that you might receive praise and glory and honor through my life.  Thank you for Jesus, my Savior, my friend, my brother.  Thank you for the Holy Spirit, my comforter, constant companion, and never failing guide.  Thank you for your Word and your promises which cannot fail.

     Unsaved friends who may be reading this message, perhaps you are heavily laden with the guilt and burden of sin.  Perhaps you are being held in bondage in Satan's prison.  Will you not believe the gospel message of God's love for you, that - “God so loved the world(you), that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever (you) believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3: 16

.  Christ shed his blood and died on the cross to pay the penalty of all our sins, yours included.  God The Father raised him from the dead on the third day as evidence that his sacrifice had been accepted as the propitiation or payment for all our sins.  “Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Won't you call upon him today, confess your sin, ask God to forgive you, and be able to thank God that you may be guilty, but blameless.

     If you agree with this message, or if you have made this decision to trust and call upon Christ for salvation,  please send  me your comments, I would be happy to hear from you.
