Forgiveness

Good Morning!! Everywhere in the Bible, God is affirmed as omniscient,...which means all-knowing. There is nothing that goes on in the universe of which He is not aware,...there is nothing that has happened or that will happen that He does not know. We live our lives "coram Deo",...this phrase literally refers to something that takes place in the presence of, or before the face of, God.

And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.—Hebrews 10:17 (KJV)

Yet here is a purposeful statement from the one and only Omniscient, declaring that He will remember the sins of His people no more — a promise of such total forgiveness that there is no trace left of the sins committed. How can this be? The truth of the cross is that God the Father remembered every single (even seemingly small) sin that every believer has, or ever will, commit and punished Jesus Christ for each and every one of them, in our stead. Not only that, but Jesus’ righteousness is imparted to us so that we stand before God truly spotless.

Holy Spirit, guide us to the cross, because there every sin is forgiven,...every transgression is forgotten. And only the blood of Jesus Christ is sufficient to wash away the stain of our sins from the memory of the One True Omniscient God. Amen.

"I pray, that your rejoicing be made more abundant in Jesus Christ."
