How to Escape Guilt

September 2, 2021

Would you like to Escape from the Guilty feelings that you are experiencing?

I recently overheard someone saying, (fictional),

“I left my girlfriend because I got her pregnant, and I feel really bad about it because she has decided to keep the baby,

and I know that it’s going to be tough for her because she has no support from her parents.

I tried to get rid of this terrible feeling of Guilt with lots of booze and cocaine,

but I found that the Cocaine especially seemed to enhance the power of this Guilt to control my emotions,

and only made things far worse because after one extremely heavy Coke binge I saw a very evil apparition cursing me.

So I went to a recommended Counsellor to try to get rid of this demon of Guilt,

and he said to me that I had nothing to feel Guilty about and offered me some prescribed pills to ease my distress.

But I don’t want meds, I want to deal with this Guilty feeling I wake up with every morning,

I really loved my girlfriend and I feel her sadness,

so I asked the Counsellor how I could Escape from this depressing Guilt.

He replied that I had no reason to feel Guilty because there was no such thing as right and wrong,

what I did wasn’t wrong, as it was just a practical choice that I made,

he comes across this type of situation all the time and there was nothing to worry about because the pills will take the load of Guilt

off my mind.

This made me feel better until I walked out the door,

because I actually felt the Monster of Guilt laughing at me, and making a mockery of my misery.

I asked myself whether I really believed that right and wrong is just a concept invented by Christianity, as the Counsellor had tried to convince me.

What can I do to escape from this terrible Guilt?”

We have the solution in the hidden Wisdom revealed by Paul in Romans Ch3 V23,24

“Since we’ve compiled this long and sorry record as Sinners,

and proved that we are utterly incapable of living the Glorious lives God wills for us,

God did it for us.

Out of sheer generosity he put us in right standing with Himself.

A pure Gift.

He got us out of the mess we’re in

and RESTORED us to where he always he always wanted us to be.

And He did it by means of Jesus Christ”.

If we could sort out our Guilt problems ourselves, then why don’t we?

If you really want to get rid of those demons that are plaguing you,

then Receive the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ by Faith.
