“well if you feel guilty, and as you said you don’t think God has concern about our sin, then why would you feel guilty at all, and what do you do about that guilt?”
That was your question to Stuart. It is pretty obvious from the thread that he thinks differently about God than you, but that doesn’t mean he can not feel guilty for his mistakes due to his conscience. The implication of your question was that one cannot feel guilt unless they have the same belief in God as you, but maybe that was not intended . Only he could tell you what he does about guilt, but I am pretty sure he has a way of dealing with it.
I agree that we are all gifted from God with a conscience and many suppress it, but there are other ways of restoring it than depending on God. I understand that is your belief and I fully support you right to believe it, but keep in mind that others have different beliefs and can make just as moral decisions based on what they believe.
I do not deal with guilt at all, consciously at least, because by the time one feels guilty about something, it’s in the past and there’s nothing that can be done about it.
When I do something that makes me feel guilty, it’s just dealt with automatically/subconsciously...if it’s of any significance, then I just probably won’t do it again.
...the determination of the level of significance is fluid though. That’s just something I had built into me when God gave me life. I don’t worry about future moral decisions because it’s all in God’s hands and the path He has set for me.
