Notes:

Admitting my failures publicly so you can avoid them personally.

-I’ve struggled with doubt.

My conscience is clear, but that does not make me innocent. 1 Cor 4:4

Wisdom: Learn the hard way or Learn the easy way

I fell for the myth that unconditional love magically undoes the consequences of my poor choices.

God’s gifts unconditional love through Christ Jesus – Outcomes are conditional upon our choices

Mistaking unconditional love as a loophole that undoes the consequences of poor choices, leads to pain.

All who listen to my instructions and follow them are wise, like a person who builds their own house on solid rock. Though the rain comes in torrents, and the floods rise, and the storm winds beat against their house, it won’t collapse for it is built on rock. But those who hear my instructions and ignore them are foolish, like a person who builds their house on sand. For when the rains and the floods come and storm winds beat against their house, it will fall with a might crash. Matthew 7:24-27

God loves us unconditionally in Christ Jesus!

But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. Even when we were God’s enemies, he made peace with us, because his Son died for us. Romans 5: 8-10

Most of life’s outcomes are conditional upon our choices.

Don’t be mislead; remember that you can’t ignore God and get away with it: a person will always reap just the kind of crop they sow! Galatians 6:9

God gives us wisdom and truth so we can avoid unnecessary pain.

To acquire wisdom is to love yourself; people who cherish understanding will prosper. Proverbs 19:8

The freedom of love is inseparable from the law of consequences.
