    I want to know why the Church of Jesus Christ on this planet condenms a man or woman for making a mistake, Once the sin is repented of God forgives it NEVER to be remembered no more. So why do His church not let it go. God has forgiven him we should also.

    Mark Lowry said it best. "Sometimes God puts His greatest gifts in the most broken pots". Im thankful that this broken pot God still sees fit to fill. His grace, forgiveness, and unwavering love is so undeserved. Im thankful that when we seek His face and ask for forgiveness, He tosses our sin into the sea of forgetfulness and posts a sign, "no fishing here". Once forgiven, it's forgotten! No matter how many times we try to remind HIM, He has no memory of it. It's under the Blood of the Lamb. Covered, washed clean, spotless.
    I know i fail daily. I struggle daily. I'm the absolute worst. Yet even then when i run back, i find open arms and a tender forgiveness I'm so undeserving of. If it weren't for grace, i don't know where I'd be. Chance after chance, He's the only one who hasn't stopped searching for me.

    Christian music is really bad about building people up. When they prove they’re regular humans and make mistakes, they turn their backs on them. As a Christian, that infuriates me. They did it to Sandi Patty, Amy Grant, and others.

They both made terrible mistakes, but by God's Grace and Mercy he knows we are human and he knows we can always go to him and ask forgiveness. Thank You so much for these two people and God they all taught me that God's Grace and Mercy is real and I feel his Grace and Mercy at home, church, and out in public. Yes, How Great Thou Art and It Is Well With My Soul. You are all loved and God Bless - Jason.

    Micheal has been through so much ....I can relate to his struggles because I struggle with the same issues...his struggles with addiction and self destructive behavior that have left him in some dark places. He has used his love of music to get him through. He is not ashamed to admit that he has made some really bad choices. He has had to lean on God during these dark times but you can tell he loves the Lord and people. He especially loves his fans and his fans love him. I first heard him sing years ago and I have followed his career since then. We love you Michael and we pray for you every single day. God still has so much instore for you. Just keep your eyes on God and you will be fine. Keep sharing that awesome voice with us and this bleeding world that needs you. God Bless You!

    2 Corinthians 1:9. SO glad to hear of your new level of “glory” that the precious Savior has brought you to, in this daily “sanctification” process….From “Glory to Glory”….1 Corinthians 2:9…However, as it is written: “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him”--(and THEN THE NEW COVENANT VERSE EVERY CHRISTIAN FORGETS TO INCLUDE, THAT YOU, MICHAEL, KNOW WELL…) (10)…but God HAS REVEALED IT TO US, BY HIS SPIRIT.” Never forget that YOU ARE COMPLETE IN HIM…Jesus said in His last breath, “It is FINISHED.”

    Individual will t live in hell but telling God and Mercy want in Heaven and people remind of sin remember God gave Messiah so live in perfection. And They shove up ass because you living consequences of actions but living for in His Mercy and Release of Consequences.Galatians 5 ..And those who belong to Christ Jesus crucified the flesh(character of humankind eg. immorality grudge holding,division ,alcoholism and such) passion and desire. then further it goes to say if there is transgression then someone spiritual come along and support .Remember Moses was given ten thing common to life after Adam and Eve exposed knowledge of Evil... in life that need to brought before Holy of Holy .Im sharing this with you as I had someone who all my life wouldn't let one thing go that she felt was wrong and my son is dead.
