Set Free by Forgiveness By: j. Randall O'Brien "Guilt inevitably produces fear." "You have two basic choices when we recognize our guilt: denial or confession." The blame game: :Ignoring our conscience, justifying our actions, or blaming others for our wrongdoing are a;; responses to guilt which lead to self-destruction." ""Projection is when we project our badness onto to others." "How do we get rid of guilt and shame? First, we "own" it or confess it. Next, we remove ourselves from the source of wrongdoing." Jesus tells "If your right eye makes you stumble, tear it out and throw it from you...If your right hand makes you stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body to go into hell (Matt. 5:29-30)" "We should acknowledge the problem and take drastic action to correct it."
