Pardoned or Paroled?

by Jefferis Kent Peterson

Back Cover

Do you feel like you cannot measure up?
Do you feel like no matter what you do, it is never enough?
Are you bothered by feelings of failure or shame? Are you motivated to go to church out of guilt and fear, rather than out of thankfulness and love for God? If so, you are trapped by the lies of performance. The lie is: the more you do for God, the more God will love you.

As a result of finding his freedom in Christ, the author outlines a plan of escape for others from the prison of guilt, fear, and condemnation. Jesus Christ sanctifies us and makes us holy. It isn't what we do, but what Christ has done for us that matters to God. By finding holiness in Christ and not in our own deeds and works, the love of God will heal our guilty consciences and remove shame and failure from our lives.

This liberating book answers many questions Christians ask themselves, like: "Although I believe in Jesus,why do I still do bad things? Am I doing enough to please God? Am I truly saved? If God has called me to be holy, why do I still live in sin?" These questions are asked by people who want to know God better. It is a question of sanctification: how can I be pure before God, have intimate fellowship with him, and walk before him unashamed?

If you have ever asked yourself questions like these, this book is for you.
