we don't feel guilty....we feel just the opposite.......we realize we're a sinner but after you except Christ you no longer carry those burdens with you....you are washed clean and born again because you r forever forgiven for everything you've done...Christ will never hold grudges......I have never felt guilty for anything....it is a tool of the devil...I feel free and at peace and I am definitely worthy of Him

I'm not sure where you found a reference to "worthless sinner." I do understand the concept you are referencing though. Many people believe that Christians live a life in constant paranoia over sin and forgiveness. This in generally a misconception. The ideas in the bible are a way of conveying positive morality. You shouldn't be a bad person, and the bible lays out ground rules for being a good person. Unfortunately, these ideas have been manipulated over the years to instill fear in the hearts of Christians. But in reality, the concept of sin is supposed to be about living a good life.

The Bible teaches that everybody's a sinner. But as Believers in Christ, even though we sin, we have been saved through Jesus. There is a verse in the Bible that says "Don't be too sinful". God wrote this knowing that there was no possible way we would ever stop sinning. The one & only man who never sinned was Jesus. We go thru our lives to praise Him, as we were made to do, and to spread the Word. We're all worthless sinners, but for nonbelievers it's worse, because when it's Judgement Day, Jesus is going to turn away from you.

Just by asking this question, you have commited sin. The sin is this. You know that you will be offending alot of people just by asking such a question. Your intention is important to your GOD. Whether you are a Christian or not, we offend people one way or another. So in a way we are all sinners. Example in the MRT when we pretend to sleep while someone who needs the seat more then us is standing right infront of us. So we should ask for forgiveness. No matter how small the sin is, we still sin. There is no one in this world that is not a sinner.

Where did you ever get the idea that we feel "guilty" let alone that we feel we are "worthless sinners"?
I do not feel guilty for anything. I know what I was before and I know what I am now. I was a worthless sinner...but Christ delivered me from all of that through His love and compassion and His death upon the cross. He reached through the darkness that I was living in and He brought me into the light. He has shown me that He loves me and He does not make me to feel guilty but to feel joy everlasting that I am His and He will be with me always.
Christians are joyous even in the midst of trials because we know that He is with us and He will see us through it all. He loves all of mankind...not just those who profess His name. He loves you even though you don't believe it and even though you don't believe in Him. It is His fervent desire that all mankind come to salvation....not just a select few...but He also knows who will and who won't and I believe that He mourns those who continue to harden their hearts toward Him.

I don't feel worthless and guilty. I accept the fact that I am, as we all are, sinners. I actually feel very secure that when I sin and make mistakes the Jesus is there for me. I rejoice at my guaranteed salvation and the rock of forgiveness. I am Christian and I sin. I am what I am and I love for the Lord for being there when I fall.

I am a sinner but I am far from worthless. God has put me here for a reason and I probably won't find out until I pass away but in the mean time I will continue to be a Mother and Wife and I will never ever feel worthless.

Christan's r not like that some people r just jealous of us. they think that they have to dis us all the time and it's not cool at all it's so immature of them. maybe if they took the time to sit down in a church and listen to the word of god maybe they would understand . and if you feel guilty about something then you go to the alter and ask forgiveness than you have repented your sin's. really don't like people calling Christan's 'worthless sinners.' were enjoying our free time instead of doing drugs 24/7 and getting diseases.

I don't think they feel guilty its more the opposite they are arrogant in their ignorance. To tell you the truth if they thought there was no god, then they would realise that it is them that should stop poverty and help the poor and not 'gods plan' and then they would feel really guilty. For wasting all that time praying and never doing anything.
Christians are very selfish when you think about it.

I do not feel guilty at all and I know that GOD loved me enough so I did not have to stay a worthless sinner.
