The Answer For A Guilty Conscience-Hebrews 9:14
14 how
much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit
offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead
works to serve the living God?
Have you heard the voice of your
conscience saying things like, “You deserve hell for the sins you
committed against your wife three years ago” or “Why are you surprised
that your child is not talking to you? You were never around when he
needed you”?
That is why you must have an
answer that will satisfy your conscience. When your conscience says,
“You have sinned. You must be punished for this sin or else God is not a
just God,” you say, “Yes, I have sinned. But this sin and every other
sin that I have committed were punished to the maximum in the body of
Jesus Christ! So there remains no more punishment for me today, for how
much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit
offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse my conscience!”
My
friend, the only way to bring peace to your conscience is to look to the
cross. The cross of Jesus is the only answer that will satisfy your
conscience.
So the next time your conscience condemns you because
of sin, don’t try to silence it with your good works. Look to the cross
and say, “Father, thank You for Jesus and the cross. Jesus was totally
condemned on my behalf for this sin, so there is now absolutely no
condemnation left for me.” Then, your conscience will look at the cross
and say, “Ahhhh... peace.” My friend, Jesus’ finished work at the cross
truly sets you free!
If you are willing to accept Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour, please pray the following prayer
Prayer: Thank you Lord, for sending your son Jesus Christ to died for me at the cross. Please forgive me of my sins and I receive you King Jesus into my life as my personal Lord and Saviour. Lord, I give you Lordship over my heart , my mind and my soul. In Jesus Mighty Name, I pray Amen.
