"For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the Kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins."
Colossians 1:13
The Prayerful let go of their sin, taking joy in knowing God no longer holds it against them. The Prideful pretend sin never happened, or if it did, it wasn’t their fault.
The Prayerful aren’t interested in coming down on the right side of history. They embrace HIS story of redemption, and humbly agree with God on what He views is right and wrong. The Prayerless attempt to appear generous, by devaluing the price tags God placed on the cost of their sin. They want to have a relationship with the King, by being transferred into His kingdom, without being under His authority.
The Prayerful humbly ask forgiveness from God, and receive redemption from sin. The Prayerless pridefully claim an exemption from their sin, and miss their redemption from it.
NOTE TO SELF: Your rescue from sin came with a price. Jesus paid it all. You didn't deserve God's forgiveness of your sin. You were rescued from it. Show some humility. Don't change the price tags.
