I think I may have a mental illness. That may be a reason why I don’t have guilt at all. Still no excuse for the things I have done.
We all come into this world as eventual mental cases.
Our minds have been damaged by the fall into sin.
Think of a china shop with all the vases fallen on the floor and broken.
Some are broken in 100 pieces - ruined.
Others are broken in 50 pieces. They too are broken.
Others are broken in 10 pieces. They may feel their in better condition than the rest. But they too are damaged, ruined.
Then there are some that consider they are only broken in 2 or 3 nice pieces.
Yet they are still broken, shattered even if in two big pieces.
This is the condition of fallen mankind. We are all broken and need our minds healed by the Savior, the Lord Jesus.
His mind is normal. His whole being is normal.
To us Jesus seems and enigma and maybe impossible.
Actually, Jesus Christ is the normal one. He is what God meant by man.
So we need Him and can have Him. And He can impart His kind of healthy mind to us.
