Still wrestling with old regrets even though you trust Jesus? This episode gets honest about that tension, the gap between what God declares over you and what your mind won’t stop replaying. Starting with Ezekiel’s picture of clean water, we trace how the Old Testament’s rituals pointed ahead to something far greater: not a temporary washing, but a once-for-all cleansing, finished at the cross and confirmed by the resurrection.
We break down imputation in simple terms. Every charge from your past was transferred to Christ’s account, and His perfect righteousness was credited to yours. That truth reframes shame because God has chosen to remember your sins no more. From there, we anchor assurance in Hebrews 10, where hearts are sprinkled from an evil conscience, and walk through Ephesians 1 to remember who we already are in Christ: chosen, adopted, accepted, forgiven, sealed, and secure.
You’ll also learn how to renew your mind when guilt flares up. Write the thoughts down. Test them as true or false. Find Scripture that answers them. Then let truth outrank your feelings. We discuss filling your mind with gospel-centered songs, leaning on community when shame whispers lies, and learning to live as someone whose ledger has already been settled.
If you’re ready to stop looping shame and start living from full assurance, this conversation will help you reset your inner dialogue and rest in who you already are in Jesus.
Short Summary:
Why does shame still linger when Christ has already cleansed us? We transition from Old Testament cleansing to New Testament assurance, providing practical tools for retraining a guilty conscience through Scripture, song, and community.
