Your Question:
Can God really forgive me for my past?
Answer:
My friend, I can see the weight of guilt and shame bearing down on you, and I want you to know that God's forgiveness is real and available to you. Even if you've struggled with casual patterns of living or made choices that didn't honor God, He forgives you fully when you confess your sins and failures. Don't misunderstand, God saved you from the power of sin to corrupt and kill when you prayed to receive Christ. But Satan is still working to undermine your resolve and ruin your relationship with God. The Bible says, "The blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin" (1 John 1:7). That's a promise from God Himself that He will forgive all sins when you come to Him in faith. It's not about what you know or how you act, it's about believing in Jesus and coming to Him. When you do, you become a Christian, and God's forgiveness is yours. I know it's hard to believe, but God means it when He says He will forgive all sins. As a pastor, I've seen many people struggle with guilt and shame, but God's forgiveness is always available. He's not just our Father who loves us, but He's also a God who demands justice and holiness. The death of Christ is the unmistakable evidence of forgiveness of sins. So, I want to encourage you to come to God with your past, your failures, and your regrets. He's not there to judge you, but to forgive you and restore you to Himself.
