What if belief that Jesus died and then rose from the dead to give you forgiveness and eternal life is all that's needed to reconcile you to God? (1 Corinthians 15:3-4 & 11, 2 Corinthians 5:20)
What if you were perfected and sanctified once for all when you put your faith in Jesus? (Hebrews 10:10)
What if there was now (right this second) no condemnation for you because you are in Christ Jesus? (Romans 8:1)
What if the new heart God gave you at salvation wanted the same things God wants? (Philippians 2:13)
What if the Holy Spirit is the comforter and councilor, not the source of guilt, fear, and doubt? (John 14:16, Isaiah 9:6)
“Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, think about these things.”
