Think On These Things
When sin is exposed … it is tempting to grovel in
self-hate and self-loathing. We feel inflicting punishment on ourselves will somehow resolve our guilt.
But this is simply another form of relying on ourselves—it is pride in disguise. We diminish the sacrifice that Christ has completed. We deny the freedom from guilt and shame that Jesus has bought for
us at a costly sacrifice.
