Summary

Every Christian has had to wrestle at some point with guilt. Even for those who believe, theologically, that they are forgiven in Christ, the struggle to feel forgiven can be agonizing.

0:51.0	a listener who asked what a Christian should do if one is feeling
0:56.4	guilty and has difficulty getting over feelings of guilt.
1:01.4	And I really understand that question because I think virtually every
1:05.8	Christian has grappled with this at some point or other and many Christians
