Summary: When a person begins to feel guilty about their sins, how can you help them? You know what happens - most people who know the Bible and then stumble into a serious sin, whether it's cheating or lying or sexual immorality or some other form of sinfulness. There are two ways to try and solve the problem of guilt. One is incorrect, the other is absolutely the way to go. The incorrect way is to deny the existence of God, or to deny Jesus Christ, or to deny what the Bible says, or to mock those who believe in Jesus and the cross of Jesus Christ. The correct way is to be honest and open and humble yourself before the Lord and to say, "Oh God, I know better. I failed You. I feel awful. I have offended You and there I'm in pain. Lord, I confess my sin. Please forgive me. Please wash me. Please cleanse me. Please give me the Holy Spirit's power again."The Bible says, "If we confess our sins God is faithful and just. He will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness." So, go the right way. Don't make excuses and don't accuse others. Confess to the Lord. He will forgive you, and you can walk with Him again. That's the way to solve the problem of guilt.
