Sinlessness

Practice with this motifPractice
Definition

The true and unchangeable state of the Son of God: a permanent fact of creation that can never be altered by what the Son believes about himself. Because it is already true, nothing needs to be paid for or redeemed by suffering, and the chain from sin to guilt to punishment has nothing to rest on.

Arc in Brief

Sinlessness names the innocence God created, undoing the belief in guilt so forgiveness becomes natural and perception shifts from condemnation to joining.
