Guest Post from Emmanuel Boison
I, even I, yes, I beg of you to let me be, for He threw my guilt, shame and dirt into the sea. So, why do your judgmental looks and words make want to pee?
Christian brothers and sisters, I pray you to stop calling me names, that you leave room for me to improve. Local church heroes please permit me to change.
Ain’t you all better people than you were a decade ago? Don’t you owe it all to God who works in you, for His good pleasure?
God has promised to seek the lost, bring back the strayed, bind up the injured, and strengthen the weak. So, why won’t you permit me to change?
You saw me about 6 years ago at the back seat of my car making out with a chorister, yeah, that dark tall beautiful alto singer you had a crush on.
You’ve ever since held it against me. By God’s grace I’m changed, married with a kid. Though you’re still single, you call me a pervert and a hypocrite.
What do you really gain from shaming me, when God has already forgiven me? Even if I were the worst sinner you’ve ever seen, isn’t it better that I’m changed?
Since you heard I’ve broken 5 innocent ladies’ hearts, you’ve made it your God-given task to tell the whole world, how heartless and irresponsible I am.
True, I battled very hard with lust, got bruised and hurt faithful souls (I’m sorry). But, God granted me victory in Christ; lust no longer has dominion over me.
Why do you keep judging the servant of another? To his own master, he stands or falls. And he will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand.
Do you believe this Scripture, "For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him”?
I am not praying your endorsement or affirmation. I only pray that you stop fighting and condemning me because God who is rich in mercy has changed me.
I know you’ve read “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.”
The Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ, the righteous is the propitiation for our sins. And not for yours only but also for the whole world.
