There are some believers, however, who live in absolute constant anxiety about 'keeping short accounts with God', trying to keep every current sinful thought and action confessed so that if they were to get hit by a bus or suffer other sudden death they would not die in an unforgiven state. They live in perpetual fear that they may have missed one, because just one sin can separate them from God! That is no way for any believer to live, and not at all how God intended!
The Cross WORKED. We can REST in that. There is PEACE in that. And in His Grace, God teaches us to say no to ungodliness (Titus 2:11-14). I believe that God is FAR more patient with us than we are with ourselves and with others.

but it is the entire package of ignoring instruction regarding forgiveness on a horizontal level that has been addressed more than once at CC with some people insisting it is not necessary
that, and stating Jesus was old school and now it's all different
the people who have said this here and tried to teach that here, know who they are
so really, while your immediate post contains truth and I agree some people are consumed by guilt, it in no way address the bigger problems many of us have been addressing and concerned about during your absence
you would have an awful lot of reading to catch up
