Subject: Holy Spirit convicts of sin? |
Bible Note: Hi stars, It sounds like you have already made up your mind and, are looking for someone to agree with you... sorry All sin is utterly heinous to God. So if indeed you have sinned, (as you have said, so by your own admission, you have) you should feel guilty. And yes, that would be the Holy Spirit convicting you of your sin. But the up side is, if you take your sin to Jesus and, are truly sorry for your sin, He is faithful and true to forgive you of your sin. Unconfined sin, is like a cancer, it will eat away at you. So be sure that you have taken your sin to the Lord with, a penitent heart. And then, let it go. Be careful though, if you have already done this, sometimes the devil or even our own deceitful hearts will, try to beat us over the head with sin, sin that Jesus (God) has already forgiven, so as to steel away our joy and, thus, our effectiveness. I've been there many times, and it is very often difficult to let old sins go. But also, it maybe isn't so bad to be reminded of them sometimes, so we can be reminded of His forgiveness. Psalm 51 John |
