AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 John 1:9 If we [freely] admit that we have sinned and confess our sins, He is faithful and just [true to His own nature and promises], and will forgive our sins and cleanse us continually from all unrighteousness [our wrongdoing, everything not in conformity with His will and purpose]. |
Subject: Am I lost for eternity because of sin |
Bible Note: Godschild, God will always forgive someone who is repentenant and had a firm purpose of amendment of their life turning away from the sin they confess. No knowing the nature of your sin and whether discussing it with your husband would make things better or worse I would not even think of advising you on that question. I would however suggest that you find someone like a member of the clergy to whom you can unburden yourself in absolute trust. I can say that it is times such as you are experiencing that a Catholic most appreciates the sacrament of confession in which we can unburden ourselves in confessing our sins to God and receive the assurance of his forgiveness from a flesh and blood person working for God in the ministry of reconciliation. 2 Cor 5:17-20. John 20:22. Emmaus I wish you peace and reconciliation with God and your husband. |
