Having guilty feelings

"If anyone belongs to Christ, then he is made new. The old things have gone; everything is made new."

"But I will call to God for help. And the Lord will save me. Morning, noon and night I am troubled and upset. But He will listen to me."

"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness."

Isa. 1:18

"Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord. Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool."

Often times the result of our speech or the result of our action causes us to feel sorry or feel guilty. This is normal and his been called our conscience. It is the work of the Holy Spirit.

As far as “condemnation” is concerned, we the saints are delivered from it by Jesus. Not just in terms of salvation, from hell, (as we are told... “condemned already”) but in the things on “this side” of heaven as well. If one feels they are guilty of hurting someone, either by mouth or actions, then appropriate action needs to take place.

Guilt is also a tool of Satan to make us feel like a second hand citizen or a failure or trash or underserving of anything that the Lord Jesus has for us. When we blow it or make mistakes our responsibililty is to CONFESS then receive forgiveness and refuse to take condemnation....for it does not come from God.
