Dr. Alexander Loyd discusses the concepts of guilt and shame in relation to one's identity in God and the significance of intention in spiritual life.

This is a FOUNDERS GROUP opportunity. Join Practice of Paradise: https://store.dralexanderloyd.com/products/practice-of-paradise Everything boils down to two things: SIGNIFICANCE and SECURITY. And those come from two things:1. Are you FAMILY with God?2. How do God and Jesus feel about you? If you're in God's family and love Him back, you have the righteousness of Christ. No guilt. No shame. No condemnation—even when you stumble. But if you don't feel that security? It's likely because you're either not in the family, you don't believe you're actually in the family, or you're not loving Him back with true intention. Here's what changes everything: God judges the INTENTION of your heart, not your individual sins. Stumbling = You didn't intend to sin, but you didPracticing = Your intention IS to sin If your true intention is to love God and never willingly leave His family, then any guilt or shame you feel is FALSE. It's a lie. Anxiety and depression typically come from guilt and shame. But what if that guilt and shame isn't even real? What if the truth is: You are righteous. You are secure. You are family. 📚 Resources & Links: Free Trilogy + Healing Codes…
