What If I Told You....

What if I told you that every evil thing you ever did was just washed away, forever forgotton by God's all seeing mind?

What if I told you of a merciful God who meets you where you are, sin filled and all?

What if I told you that you have been forgiven because God's Son (Christ) took the wrath due?

What if I told you God demands that all men repent or else face an eternity in Hell?

What if I told you God sent His sinless Son to give you salvation through your repentance and by the power of the Cross?

11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him; 

12 as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us. 

13 As a father shows compassion to his children, so the LORD shows compassion to those who fear him. 

14 For he knows our frame; he remembers that we are dust.  - Psalm 103:11-14

When I think of the words "as far as the east is from the west", I picture Christ on the cross, taking the wrath of our sin and it just burning away, like it never even existed! The distance being immeasurable!! Wow! Forgiven is a mighty powerful word with eternal meaning!!!

"I, I am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake, and I will not remember your sins.  - Isaiah 43:25

God knows man is but a breath!!!

His mercy toward man is great!!!

15 As for man, his days are like grass; he flourishes like a flower of the field; 

16 for the wind passes over it, and it is gone, and its place knows it no more. 

17 But the steadfast love of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear him, and his righteousness to children's children, 

18 to those who keep his covenant and remember to do his commandments. 

19 The LORD has established his throne in the heavens, and his kingdom rules over all.  - Psalm 103:15-19
