Forgiven, and what does it mean for you?
Forgiven: To give up resentment against or desire to punish; pardon, to cancel a debt. We all have a desire to know that everything is ok, and that we are going to heaven when we die. The Bible says as it is appointed unto man once to die,....Heb 9:27. Somewhere inside ourselves we fear this thing called death. Because of this fear it drives us to look for answers. The only place to find the answers to what we are looking for is in the word of God. I beg you dear friend to consider what God says and not what man. Their is away that seemth right unto a man and the end there of is destruction. Prov. 14:12. We have a problem, this problem is called sin. Because of this sin we owe a debt, Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death,...... (that death is total separation from God in hell forever) According to the word of God we all owe this debt, Romans 3:23 For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God; Romans 3:10 As it is written, there is none righteous, no not one. To be able to go to heaven, the sin debt must be paid. So God himself became flesh, so he could pay the sin debt for the whole world. John 1:1 In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God. John 1:14 And the word became flesh and dwelt among us, this is Christ my dear friend. The reason God came in the flesh is to pay the sin debt we all owe. Heb 9:26 For then must he (Christ) often have suffered since the foundation of the world; but now once in the end of the world hath he (Christ) appeared to put away sin by th sacrifice of himself. Isa 53:6 All we like sheep have gone astray we have turned everyone to his own way; and the Lord hath (already has) laid on him the iniquity of us all. Rev 1:5 And Jesus Christ who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth unto him (Christ) that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood. Now that the sin debt is paid, according to the scriptures, we are made fit for heaven, welcomed because of Christ never to b charged again. Thank God. We have been soley forgiven because of Christ and Christ alone. Because of what he did for us at calvary God wrote us a love letter, this letter is called the Bible, letting us know that everything is alright and that the sin debt has been paid and when we die we can come to heaven to be with him, free of charge to us. Christ paid the debt that we could not pay. So my dear friend please read this wonderful letter God has sent just for you to let you know that he loves you and you are forgiven, ready for heaven, because of Christ finished work at calvary. Heb 10:14 For by one offering He (Christ) hath (already has) perfected forever then that are sanctified (forgiven). How are we sanctified(forgiven)? Heb 10:10 By the which will we are sanctified (forgiven) through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for ALL. May the Lord bless and lead you.
