This is the undeserved favour of God which all who put their trust in Jesus alone, receive. It is God's forgiveness given to His children which no one can take away from them. They do not have to do anything to get this favour, in fact it is an insult to God if they try to earn it in any way. No one can require them to do anything to deserve it , but some will try to take away their peace and joy,people who should know better. Some people preach the freedom of God's people and then behave in another way suggesting they should not have the joy and peace. Don't let anyone try to steal away what you have in Jesus."He(or she) who has been forgiven much, loves much." with that love comes joy. Your sins are between you and Jesus and He has washed them all away. Forget them, but remember how much He loves you. And don't go poking around in someone else's failures.
First of all thanks to Fat Prophet for your interest. I see from your blog you are having trouble commenting. To get back to my assessed service. Criticism albeit constructive is harder for some to take than others. I felt a little crushed after my assessed service but then remembered I had recorded it on my dictaphone. I listened to it all through and although my assessors were quite right about me speaking a little quickly and rushing from item to item, I was actually very pleased with the content of my sermon and how I presented it. So I have decided to take heart. I highly recommend other trainees to record your services. You can hear your good points and your bad and there is no argument about it, it is all caught on the recorder.
