Your mistakes speak shame. Your mistakes say you're a fake. Your mistakes will tell you you don't belong to God. Your mistakes will tell you you aren't a real Christian. But the Holy Spirit within us sends us a different message. You belong to him. So it's not that the Holy Spirit excuses your sin. It's that the Holy Spirit helps you to not identify with that sin. Yes, we bear the responsibility. Yes, there are still consequences to sin. And no, sin has no place in the life of the believer. But while you're battling with that wrongdoing, the Holy Spirit is within you, reminding you of who you are in Christ.
