But if anyone suffers as a Christian, he is not to be ashamed, but is to glorify God in this name.
1 Peter 4:16
People love to gossip and create a sense of wrong where there is no wrong. Past sins, which are forgiven and forgotten by God, make great conversation. It happens in the world and in the church. Those who specialize in delivering guilt and shame use it as a wicked weapon to try to destroy the confidence we have in Christ.
We are not ashamed, we are forgiven. We belong to God and He loves us. Nothing man can say or do can change that.
