But Jesus never supplied superfluous shame. Here is where you deny the ability of grace to suggest repentance just by its mere presence and the mere action of conscience.
Jesus said people who do that kind of denying of the power of grace are preceded by prostitutes into the kingdom of heaven.
What are you going to do about THAT shame, shame-boy?
Having a conscience requires knowing and comprehending the effects and power of shame. No shame, no conscience.....you have 0bamao and Hildebeast.
As a sinner I've always found a little guilt to be motivating. Although maybe that is just my conscious?
One of my daughters is going through some stuff, and a lot of it is due to shame about stuff. (Stuff that she did, was forgiven for, she doesn't do it anymore, and I seriously forgot all about it. She kind of had to poke my memory a bit. Of course I don't remember lots of stuff.)
It's sad to see her hanging onto that. And the damage it can do.
