Shame can be emotionally and spiritually crippling, distorting one’s self-perception and beliefs about God, potentially leading to self-condemnation and a sense of permanent probation. Acknowledging the presence of sin is essential in addressing shame.

Instead of focusing on the faults of others, we should look inward, recognize the need for mercy and grace, and drop the metaphorical stones.

1 John 1:9 tells us, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness”.

The message of release from condemnation offers hope and transformation through faith in Jesus. It does not excuse sin but calls for repentance and a changed life empowered by the Spirit of God.
