How
many times do we ask God to forgive us, only to leave His presence to
continue to live in a state of bondage?
Yes, we take our burdens to Him but instead of leaving them, with
pick them back up and take them with us.
When
God forgives, He “forgives”…
Some
examples from scripture would be when Jesus healed and forgave, He said
to “go and tell”….Who do we tell?
“Others”....anyone we come in contact with.
Its simple…just “go and tell”..
Now,
what about that sin that’s in our lives that society tells us is
“unforgivable”?
Did
Jesus not forgive the prostitute? (Luke 7:37-48)
Did
Jesus not forgive the adulteress? (John 8:11)
Does
Jesus then, not forgive us? (Psalm 103:12)
We
say, we know that God has forgiven us, but we still must live out the
consequences of our sin. Yes,
this is true, however, a consequence of sin is “never” to refrain
from “telling”… “Go
tell….” Those are
Jesus’ exact words, no matter the language, it is still “go
tell”..
Matthew:28:1-20…
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of
the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to
observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you; and lo I am with you
always, even unto the end of the world.
