It is not God who condemns us, Jesus weeps in our midst, He knows our condition and know that the situation lives by us is consequence of the action of the enemy of God, that also is the enemy of Him. Satan does not want us to feel the love of the Lord for us. Therefore, he takes steps to repress our minds and thoughts like clay.

Jesus wants to make it clear that it is not Him who has acted in this manner with us, but the evil one. Jesus does not want us to believe anymore that we are inferior, incapable, rejected, without love, condemned, accused, but that we may believe in Him.
Christ is in our midst and extends a hand to take us our from under the feet of the enemy and of his heal. I want to believe in His love and we know that He has not accused us. Satan is who has done this condemning us, throwing in our face present and past errors and making us believe that Jesus has acted this way.
Jesus wants that we may believe in His love, in His infinite mercy and be converted.
God Bless you!
