FORGIVENESS

 FORGIVENESS

We have sinned hundreds of times against our Creator God.

Romans 2:5 speaks of “storing up sins against the wrath of God.”

We have sinned thousands of times against this holy God.

And every one of those sins --- be it a sin of the flesh or the sin of the spirit; be it a sin of omission or a sin of commission; be it a vile, wicked act or a little white lie. 

EVERY SIN is worthy of death and judgment and the wrath of God! Why? Because they were committed against an infinite and holy God. 

Every one of us would “un-god God” if we could.

We would take God off His throne and seat ourselves there! 

Agreed? We would enthrone ourselves as God!

Psalm 130:3-4 asks a stunning question:

“If you, Oh LORD, should mark iniquities, who could stand?

The obvious answer is nobody.

But verse 4 makes a powerful and gracious statement:

“But there is forgiveness with You, that you may be feared.”

How so? I John 1:7, “But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us from all our sins.”

Did you get that truth? His blood!!!!! ALL our sins!

That, my friends, is forgiveness!
