What a sad way to live.
For born again Christians with a PERSONAL relationship with Jesus (quite scriptural btw) when praying to Jesus and asking forgiveness we KNOW that Jesus hears us and forgives our sins.
As a matter of fact, He already did it.
He took all of our sins, past present and future, with Him to the cross.
He died in our place for all of our sins.
What a great thing for Him to do!
The blood of Jesus makes us white as snow.
18 “Come now, and let us reason together,” Says the Lord, “Though your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They shall be as wool.--Isaiah 1:18BTW, the story of the sinner sent to Hell for not attending mass...Wow how unlike God that is!
29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! --John 1:29
How then do you dismiss the sins against hope, those of despair and of presumption?
Peace and blessings to you
