The condemnation comes in when it should be conviction. The devil tries to blur the lines between the two. When God wants us to change, he convicts us. When the devil wants us to not have any hope, then he creates this idea that you can't change. This is a lie.
If you are feeling condemned because of what Zachary is sharing, then I would question where the source of the condemnation is coming from. It is not from God. Though, what is being share can still be truth, but you are currently blind from seeing it - hence condemnation comes in.
If we think that God can help us through ANY struggle that we are going through as long as we seek to love Him with all of our heart and seek do do his will, then God is there to pick us up when we fall short. Should we use this as an excuse to disobey (sin) God forbid! Rather we remember the grace that God has for us and the love that he will always be there to help us when we act like peter and stretch our hand out.
In peace
