Accusation

I had a really good conversation with a friend of mine in which we talked about the past rearing it's ugly head in a condemning way. I sent a note of encouragement to my friend with a passage from Romans. A few days later the song Embracing Accusation by Shane & Shane came up on my playlist. A few days ago my friend posted the following video on her blog. I just watched it this morning - the video uses a passage in Galatians. I was struck by a few things: #1 There are so many passages of scripture that remind us that we don't make ourselves right before God - Christ did that - and because Christ, through His blood, made us right before the Lord, we are righteous and there is no condemnation for us. #2 The irony of Satan being right... but only to the point to send us to the foot of the cross! Satan sharing the gospel. Too much!
