The only way to get off the hamster wheel of drivenness and performance is to know and accept the everlasting, Glorious love of God. The sin of one man, Adam, gave us a consciousness in our natural birth that fills us with shame, guilt and condemnation. Adam’s sin haunts us even when we come into Christ. God makes us a new Creation in Christ and we die to sin and become a New Creation in Christ, and it is in our New Creation heart that we receive the love of God. By accepting God’s love, His all-encompassing, limitless, accepting love we lose the lock of guilt and condemnation and realize that in Christ we have been eternally set free. We are no longer think of ourselves as sinners in Adam but as Holy and Righteous in Christ. Jesus has paid the price for Adam’s sin and now in Christ we are eternally set free.
