5 to Chew On- Forgiveness
by Scott Hamilton on Tuesday, 3rd September 2013
Our sins have been put away. To use the language of the Scriptures…they are completely removed, put behind God’s back, blotted out, remembered no more, and hurled into the depths of the sea. Jerry Bridges
The degree to which I am able and willing to forgive others is a clear indication of the extent to which I have personally experienced God my Father’s forgiveness for me. The corollary to this is that anyone who is not willing to forgive another has certainly not known God’s loving forgiveness. Philip Keller
I think that if God forgives us we must forgive ourselves. Otherwise it is almost like setting ourselves up as a higher tribunal than Him. C.S. Lewis
The wisdom of God has ordained a way for the love of God to deliver us from the wrath of God without compromising the justice of God. John Piper
God has cast our confessed sins into the depths of the sea, and He's even put a "no fishing" sign over the spot. Dwight L. Moody
