    Does anyone deserve it?

    when we sin and receive what we think is punishment, really isn't if we're saved.... the pain we receive is just consequences of sin... sin does that, it's bad for us and bad can result. if we're christians then God doesn't remember sin, that gives us the courage and faith to try again to do...
