The confidence of a true believer stems from the fact that their lives reflect Gods nature. Gods nature at its core is love of course. This love is a giving (agape) love and removes any and all fear of judgement. Think about this when you think about Gods nature. Jesus came and his whole focus was other people, not himself. Our culture breeds selfishness. As a Christian you give up those rights to be self focused. If you and I call Jesus LORD we gave up the right to decide our actions and will. Free will no longer applies in the sense that we have surrendered to God and welcomed his Holy Spirit to be our conscience and guide through the rest of this life.
