Condemnation will remind you
What wrong you’re doing or have done
It has labeled you a failure…
You’ve run the race but never won!
It does not provide solutions
It only throws accusing glances
It has no interest in your future…
Does not believe in second chances.
Conviction, on the other hand,
Is never going to nail you up.
It always points to a solution.
It always tries to mend your cup.
It will lead to Godly sorrow
It works through the Holy Ghost
To convince you to consider
Things that should matter the most.
Because there is no condemnation
To anyone who is in Christ.
Jesus didn’t come here to condemn
Instead, He came to sacrifice.
Condemnation crucifies …
It nails you up from limb to limb.
Conviction wants to draw a map…
A map to lead you back to Him.

Romans 2:4
Or do you show contempt for the riches of his kindness,
tolerance and patience, not realizing that God's
kindness leads you toward repentance?
John 12:47
"As for the person who hears my words but does
not keep them, I do not judge him. For I did not come
to judge the world, but to save it.
Romans 8:1
Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those
who are in Christ Jesus
Revelations 12:10
Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: "Now have
come the salvation and the power and the kingdom
of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers, who accuses them before our God
day and night, has been hurled down.
