Malachi.. just a few days ago I felt really stressed, over all the bad things I've done over the years and feelings that I was unworthy and that God would never forgive me, swamped me. I went to him in prayer and I heard him, in a quiet inner voice, say to me.. read Psalm 51.

The context of the scripture shows Paul was talking about 'things sacrificed to idols'. In those days after the animals had been sacrificed the meat was later sold at markets. Christians would not eat that meat as a part of the sacrificial ritual in the dining rooms of the temples but they would...

There is difference between sin that comes from our imperfect human flesh. Even the apostle Paul said what a struggle he had, how it would be for all christians as they tried to please God. "Did that which is good, then, bring death to me? By no means! It was sin, producing death in me through...
