Thank you...thank you for the message of freedom this article delivers. I can't express how helpful it has been for me to be contemplating Jesus' life and message in light of his victory over alienation. Turning towards God with understanding that there is not one ounce of alienation remaining between us is an incredible feeling...a true feeling of the wondrous depth of connection that is truly possible with Him. That feeling is freedom...it is lungs breathing fully in a way not thought possible...it is both exhilarating and somewhat daunting as I realize this immense Presence is receiving me as I am in total Love and with a powerful Grace that can only change me...transform me into that which I've always longed for: both my truest Self and into the image of the One I love so dearly, Jesus. Repentance, as you say, is done from a place of Love and I am learning ever so slowly, leads us into the incredible freedom of the Life of Jesus. His own statement that 'whom the Son sets free is free indeed' means much more to me today than it did not so long ago.
