What about Guilt??
Come now, let us reason together saith the Lord?
though your sins be as scarlet, they will be white as snow -Isaiah 1:18
Old testament feasts a shadow of fulfillment in Jesus Christ
The feast of atonement
,Yom Kippur- included High priest taking 2 goats, one to be the sin offering, the other to be the scapegoat- sent into the wilderness -
This required Humility
The shadow of humility
Leviticus 23:27-32 - day of atonement- afflict your souls- do no work
This cleansing was for the purpose of RELATIONSHIP- not for purpose of appeasement like all the other surrounding religions
Jesus came as all three:
and
- The Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all
Let us then, agree with God, that Jesus has taken away our sin and our guilt

Prayer Suggestions for July:
Grant us godly sorrow to Repentance

Give us Repentance to the acknowledging of the truth

Help us to humble ourselves, and pray, and seek your face, and turn from our wicked ways; so you will hear from heaven, and will forgive our sin, and will heal our land.
