How to Break Free from Guilt and Shame // Freedom Part 5 of 5

Have you ever felt trapped by your past and present struggles?
Does guilt from past sins or shame over current challenges weigh
heavy on your heart? This week, Pastor Nick walks us through key
biblical teachings that reveal our true identity in Christ and
show us the path to spiritual freedom.





**Key Takeaways**:





1. **Freedom from Past Sins**:


   - Many of us are burdened by guilt over our
past, but as believers in Jesus Christ, we are no longer slaves
to those past mistakes.


   - Key Bible References: John 5, 2 Corinthians
5:17, Romans 8:1, Philippians 3:13





2. **Freedom from Present Struggles**:


   - The difference between a non-believer and a
believer is that a believer doesn't love their sin even though
they may still struggle with it.


   - Key Bible References: Romans 8:1, Galatians
5:16-17, Philippians 2:12





3. **Embracing Your New Identity**:


   - In Christ, you are a new creation. Your past
does not define you, and your current struggles do not shackle
you.


   - Visual Illustration: Understanding your
sealed identity in Christ helps you fend off the enemy’s
accusations.


   - Key Bible References: Psalms 103, Romans 8
