We are all sinners but we are forgiven
Ps: this article is not written to support any recent happening on here, I wrote according to the inspiration I got this morning.
I am a sinner and I’m glad that I am a sinner because if I claim to be innocent on some things, I will be lying. We are all sinners. And in this season of Lent, when we are called to reflect on sin and forgiveness, we should always remember that we are sinners too.
We are all sinners and we all make mistakes. This is a fact. As we say in Nigeria, “even the dog that bites you was once bitten by another dog”. For example, if you are always mean to other people, the day will come that you will be the one being mean or worse and trust me, it will feel really bad. Always remember that times will change. What is cool today may not be cool tomorrow and what is uncool now might be cool later. So, never be afraid to try new things and never give up on good things just because they don’t seem cool now.
I am going to tell you something else now. Do you know you are a special person? Well, if you don’t then let me tell you that the universe has already given you your purpose but you have yet to accept it.
I have learned that we are all sinners. This can be a hard truth to accept, but if we refuse to believe it, then there is no hope for us. Even if you claim to be innocent of some things, you should always remember that you are guilty of being a sinner.
This is not a bad thing, this is an awesome thing. In fact, being a sinner means that you are eligible to receive the gift of forgiveness.
When I think about myself, I often find myself longing to be better than I am. I want to be more productive. I want to be of more help. I want to be a better son or daughter. A better brother or sister. A better friend or colleague.
I’m not perfect as it is but I want to be better. I want to be the best version of myself possible and if I do not achieve that, then at the very least, I want to improve on what I am. To me, being better is an improvement on oneself and an improvement on oneself entails being better than before.
You see, Jesus Christ was the perfect example of God's love and mercy. He was without sin, but he became a man and died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins. The penalty for our sins is death, but Jesus took it on as his own. He was tortured and killed as he bore our sins so that we can have eternal life with God in heaven.
He took our punishment because he loves us so much.
I have accepted these things, but I don't claim to be innocent. I am a sinner--absolutely. And I am not ashamed of it because I believe God is merciful. And he has given me the gospel, the good news that he forgives my sin and that he will give me eternal life. So in a way, we are all sinners, but we are not all condemned by sin. We are all sinners, but we are not all condemned by sin.
We all make mistakes but we should also remember that we have a lot of good in us too. Sometimes, we have to admit that we are not perfect because only then can we continue in our journey to become better versions of ourselves.
The Bible says that all have sinned ( Romans 3:23 ) and things are made more obvious by the fact that Jesus Christ was sent here to save us from our sins. But, do we acknowledge our sins? We are all sinners. We are not perfect and we always need to work harder to make things better for us.
Maintaining a positive outlook on life is important but that does not mean you are exempt from mistakes. We are all sinners. We should not feel guilty about our sins but we should always be aware that there is still a lot of good in us despite our flaws.
We are all sinners, but Jesus Christ is the only perfect one who ever lived. The moment he died on the cross, paying for our sins, he rose on the third day and we can be saved. He is the only Messiah we should follow, he is our lord and saviour, there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.
The bible says that we Christians are all forgiven because of the work of Jesus Christ, the only perfect man to have ever existed so far.
Love God and love your neighbour as you would love yourself.

Thank you Jesus Christ for your death on the cross, you paid for our sins, you rose on the third day and that we can be saved. We need to embrace the cross and do the will of the father more.
