Welcome to episode 222 of Grasp the Bible. In this episode, Pastor Drew continues our study entitled Piercing Questions: From the One Who Was Pierced. Today we will cover: 

A question on Shame. “Where are you?” (Genesis 3:9)

Key Takeaways:

• Shame tells you who you were — Grace reminds you who you are in Christ.

• Shame is not what God desires for us! (Romans 8:1)

• Shame is a self-imposed condemnation.

• Shame Scorns the cross! (Hebrews 12:2)

• Shame happens when we focus on ourselves. Freedom happens when we focus on Jesus.

• You can’t be anchored to grace and swept away by shame at the same time.

Quotable:

• “You can’t be anchored to grace and swept away by shame at the same time.”

• “Shame tells you who you were — Grace reminds you who you are in Christ.”

Application:

• Confess your sin — If you mess up, confess up, get up, and move on! (Psalm 32:5)

• Run to the Father — Tell Him your sin, trust His grace, and walk with Him.

• Pray and Worship — Remember the secret friendship of God (Psalm 32:6–7).

• Submit to Scripture and the Spirit — Correction brings freedom.

• Don’t stay in shame — Walk in freedom, not in sin.

• Walk with Jesus — Freedom from sin, not freedom to sin.
