The battle is between the flesh and the Spirit, your shame and your guilt.

There is a constant war going on in each of our lives.

Shame and guilt feel similar but pull in opposite directions. Shame traps us in ourselves, while guilt opens the door to repentance, forgiveness, and the grace only God can give.

Quick Quote – Source – Rich Holt & Jarrod Scott combined

A Biblical Christian worldview perspective – The “flesh” is our sin nature and the Spirit is the Holy Spirit, acting as the Counselor for every Biblical Christian (John 14:26-28). They are in a constant battle, each attempting to control our actions (Rom. 7:24). When our thoughts or behavior are contrary to God’s law, we feel either shame or guilt. Shame does not offer the opportunity for God to introduce grace. Guilt is a recognition of our sins and, through repentance, the ability, to have our actions forgiven.
