(1) OVERVIEW
(1-1) The way to peace in life
With Easter, this core Biblical message is about learning how to have peace in life about whatever wrong you might have done - by receiving God's righteousness (i.e., full approval). This topic is at the heart of Scripture and applying it right gives the power to then create a great life with God (e.g., Romans 5). The content here is designed for people who have or want to have a great relationship with God (or whoever also wants to learn this material), but still maybe struggle with varying levels of unduly guilt, shame, or self-condemnation (e.g., Romans 7, 8).
Advancing in this area is especially important during troubling or hectic times because when things go wrong in life, we can start feeling bad about ourselves and get drained of strength. Additionally, there are forces that use accusations and other mistreatments to bring people down (e.g., Zechariah 3:1; Revelation 12:10) (among other tactics).
