The devil is not only active in the opposing of the gospel to those who are lost, but in disguising it and the manifold blessings of it to those who have been born from above. He manipulates believers through guilt, in the area of their weaknesses, encouraging them to take their eyes off Christ and put it on themselves and to unwillingly come back under a works based salvation. Yes we are to be repentant, in every way; but we are also to walk in the life and light provided by the God who accepts our repentance and FORGIVES US!
