No judgment, just forgiveness and guidance

We all have sin. Sin places us under judgment and separates us from
God. Sin is the embracing of things which run contrary to the way our
universe was designed. It is therefore a type of cancer against
creation, eating away at what was given us by God, eating away at what's
right, true, and proper, all of the things which lead to our natural
love and growth as God intended.
Jesus came to the Earth to change that. He came to meet us where we
are (in our sin, under punishment and condemnation because of it),
and make a way back to righteousness for us.
Jesus came to the Earth to forgive our sin, restore us from judgment,
to transform our life, begin the process of healing, and guiding us
from this day forward away from Satan's traps and snares, and toward
the right, holy, true, and proper things of God.
How virtuous is a virgin bride kept purposefully true for her future
husband, compared to the bar room floozy who goes home with a new guy
every week?
Jesus wants to restore us from our sinful state, transforming us to a
perfect and spotless creation, so that we can be with Him in Heaven,
free from the rigors and burdens of this sin-laden world.
He wants to make all things new for you.
He won't force Himself on you, but respects our choice, the choice He
gave you as a free and true ability to choose. But for all who will
hear His call and come to Him asking forgiveness for their sin, to them
He gives the right to become children of God.
We were created in His very image and likeness. He is One, being God
the Father, Son, Holy Spirit. Likewise we are three-fold, and we are
one: soul, body, spirit.
Sin separates us from God because we die spiritually (eternally). But
Jesus forgives our sin by what He did at the cross. He went there
condemned under man's laws, yet innocent before God. This made Him
able to transfer our sin onto Himself so that we could be set free
from our horrific state because of sin.
There is no greater gift imaginable. God is literally offering you
eternity for the acknowledgement of your sin, and the asking of
forgiveness from it. He wants you to live on, thriving in the fullest
richness that is the sum total of you, unencumbered by Earthly
limitations, in a body like the angels that is always young, strong,
beautiful, and operating at the top of ability.
No judgment. No condemnation. Only the gift of life eternal, and
direct fellowship with God Himself. Face to face, unencumbered.
Jesus wants you to ask Him to forgive your sin. I pray you do. You
are a remarkable and special creation of God, and He has big plans for
you on the Earth, and in eternity. I would like to see you in Heaven.
Love you,
Rick C. Hodgin

then yoy may be correct. But I am posting about Jesus, and teaching
you about forgiveness of sin and eternal life.
These things are of such paramount importance to all people that it
would be a sin to not post such teachings.
Thank you,

I know you are a good person. Thank you. Perhaps we can get along. I
have to learn to be a better person for I have called you very mean
things in public. Yikes!
