When You Or I Sin, He Forgives


What humbling words, "You are forgiven". 
1 John 2:12
I am writing to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven for his name's sake. 

Luke 7:48
And he said to her, "Your sins are forgiven."

Jesus has the authority!
Luke 5:24
But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins"-he said to the man who was paralyzed-"I say to you, rise, pick up your bed and go home."

Matthew 28:18
And Jesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.

What will you do with this joyful text?
Ignore it?
Embrace it?

Lord, how many times will You forgive our rebellion? 
We ask for mercy, Lord. 
We ask for clear understanding!
We ask for Your grace!
Amen
