Humility

The religious establishment has a way of rubbing our noses in the past to keep us humble, but reviewing the sinfulness of our past in order to become humble is perverted. This actually creates shame, and shame is a poor counterfeit of humility. It requires us to hold onto something that Jesus died for. It is much more humbling to live in the freedom of unearned forgiveness. When we walk in the truth of being completely forgiven, it changes us. Forgiveness is the source of humility, not our failures.
