guilt

⁹If we confess our sins, then he is faithful and just, so as to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all iniquity.

¹Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, who are not walking according to the flesh.

¹Therefore, having been justified by faith, let us be at peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Christ.

²³For all have sinned and all are in need of the glory of God.

⁷Therefore, be subject to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

⁷I say to you, that there will be so much more joy in heaven over one sinner repenting, than over the ninety-nine just, who do not need to repent.

¹To David himself. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and bless his holy name, all that is within me. ²Bless the Lord, O my soul, and do not forget all his recompenses. ³He forgives all your iniquities. He heals all your infirmities. ⁴He redeems your life from destruction. He crowns you with mercy and compassion. ⁵He satisfies your desire with good things. Your youth will be renewed like that of the eagle. ⁶The Lord accomplishes mercies, and his judgment is for all who patiently endure injuries.

⁷Cast all your cares upon him, for he takes care of you.

¹⁴Yet truly, each one is tempted by his own desires, having been enticed and drawn away.

¹My little sons, this I write to you, so that you may not sin. But if anyone has sinned, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ, the Just One.

¹⁰For the sorrow that is according to God accomplishes a repentance which is steadfast unto salvation. But the sorrow that is of the world accomplishes death.

¹³For all those who have called upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

⁹The Lord is not delaying his promise, as some imagine, but he does act patiently for your sake, not wanting anyone to perish, but wanting all to be turned back to penance.

⁷And he touched my mouth, and he said, “Behold, this has touched your lips, and so your iniquities will be taken away, and your sin will be cleansed.”
