About Forgiving Sin
HEADLINE:
Matthew 6:12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: 15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
John 15:1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the
husbandman. :2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he
purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
Isaiah 27:9 By this therefore shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged; and this is all the fruit to take away his sin; when he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in sunder, the groves and images shall not stand up.
Prophecy of the
work of the Lamb
Isaiah 53:10 Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand. 11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities. 12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
When Moses received the law
Exodus 34:5 And the LORD descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the LORD. 6 And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, The LORD, The LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, 7 Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth generation.
In his role as
God’s Lamb, Jesus taught us to forgive one another
Matthew 18:21 Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how
oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? 22
Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until
seventy times seven. (Jesus next tells an
allegory about a servant who sought forgiveness
and refused to forgive a fellow-servant of the debt he owed to him). 32
Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked
servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me: 33 Shouldest
not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on
thee? 34 And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he
should pay all that was due unto him. 35 So likewise shall my heavenly Father
do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother
their trespasses.
Isaiah 11:1 And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots: 2 And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD; 3 And shall make him (the Lamb) of quick understanding in the fear of the LORD: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears:
John 7:24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
John 8:15 Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.
John 5:22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
Psalms 37:32 The wicked (demons) watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him. 33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
Jeremiah 50:20 In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found: for I will pardon them whom I reserve.
Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Infractions of the law are called “sins and transgressions”, but we see Jesus as GREATER THAN THE LAW AND SINS. By his BLOOD-ERASER, NO MAN CAN HAVE SIN CHARGED UNTO HIM. Come on and say, "Thank you, Jesus"! Amen!
When we stand in judgment, we must not do it according to the sight of the eye and hearing of the ear. We must judge righteously in the manner taught by the Supreme Judge Himself. Father sent Jesus as a “Teacher to show us” an example of how to do it right
Malachi 3:18 Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.
The following is how Father taught the newly redeemed ”watchers” in their day about “how to judge” what they see happening to men on Earth. Jesus was the on the ground “teacher” on that day.
John 8:3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst, 4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. 5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? 6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not. 7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. 8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground. 9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. 10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? 11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
1 Corinthians 2:16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
Notice the words Jesus asks of the Father just before he was taken captive and crucified:
John 17:20 Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; 21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. 22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: 23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
Forgiving the sins of all men is what Father wants all His children to do. As Supreme Judge, Father has taught us: to “ascribe all sin to azazel (the devil)”.
Enoch 10:8 And the whole earth has been corrupted 9 through the works that were taught by Azazel: to him ascribe all sin.' And to Gabriel said the Lord: 'Proceed against the bastards and the reprobates, and against the children of fornication: and destroy [the children of fornication and] the children of the Watchers from amongst men: [and cause them to go forth]: send them one against the other that they may destroy each other in 10 battle: for length of days shall they not have. And no request that they (i.e. their fathers) make of thee shall be granted unto their fathers on their behalf; for they hope to live an eternal life,
Genesis 4:5-7, New English Bible, "The Lord received Abel and his gift with favor; But Cain and his gift the Lord did not receive. Cain was very angry and his face fell. Then the Lord said to Cain, Why are you so angry and cast down? If you do well you are accepted; if not SIN IS A DEMON crouching at the door. It shall be eager for you, and you will be mastered by it".
Using the Supreme Judge’s Highest thoughts, SIN IS A DEMON mastering men who flunk their test situations. These “people do not do well” when tested, and their behavior is unacceptable. These flaws, short-comings, failures, and breaking points are EXACTLY what the SCIENTIST sought to discover. SIN is not something that can prevent a man from “being saved”, neither can it strip a man of his INHERITED IMMORTALITY created in him.
1 John 3:8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. 9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
Notice who’s Words are being uttered. It is the Supreme Judge from His lips and from the Throne! Humans are living “spirit-children”, who are part of God Himself. That is why “men cannot sin” in the Words of the Supreme Judge Himself!
Ecclesiastes 7:29 Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they (devils) have sought out many inventions.
The only One with power and authority to damn is the Supreme
Judge ONLY. Back in the day, He ruled in
the Court trial of Lucifer,
Ecclesiastes 3:14 I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.
Devils thought they could trick God into damning some of His children with them by taking advantage of the Words written in the law. But Michael and Raphael knew some things about which they were ignorant.
Enoch 68:2 And on that day Michael answered Raphael and said: 'The power of the spirit transports and makes me to tremble because of the severity of the judgement of the secrets, the judgement of the angels: who can endure the severe judgement which has been executed, and before 3 which they melt away? 'And Michael answered again, and said to Raphael: 'Who is he whose heart is not softened concerning it, and whose reins are not troubled by this word of judgement 4 (that) has gone forth upon them because of those who have thus led them out? 'And it came to pass when he stood before the Lord of Spirits, Michael said thus to Raphael: 'I will not take their part under the eye of the Lord; for the Lord of Spirits has been angry with them because they do 5 as if they were the Lord. Therefore all that is hidden shall come upon them for ever and ever; for neither angel nor man shall have his portion (in it), but alone they have received their judgement for ever and ever.'
No man can be lost when Father is living the life in and for each human test subject. Not only is Father “dwelling and walking in men”, but He tells us, “Without me you can do nothing” and “all those works you claim you did, I did them all”!
2 Corinthians 6:16 And what agreement hath the
John 15:5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
Isaiah 26:12 LORD, thou wilt ordain peace for us: for thou also hast
wrought all our works in us.
All devils had to do is to read this part of the verdict:
Enoch 10:20 And cleanse thou the earth from all oppression, and from all unrighteousness, and from all sin, and from all godlessness: and all the uncleanness that is wrought upon the earth 21 destroy from off the earth. And all the children of men shall become righteous, and all nations 22 shall offer adoration and shall praise Me, and all shall worship Me. And the earth shall be cleansed from all defilement, and from all sin, and from all punishment, and from all torment, and I will never again send (them) upon it from generation to generation and for ever.
It is never “too late” for man to repent. They do it all the time in
Numbers 23:19 God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
Jeremiah 18:1 The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD,
saying, 2 Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause thee
to hear my words. 3 Then I went down to the potter's house, and, behold, he
wrought a work on the wheels. 4 And the vessel that he made of clay was marred
in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good
to the potter to make it. 5 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 6 O
house of
Revelation 21:5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. 6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. 7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. 8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Matthew 23:33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
Matthew 25:41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left
hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting
fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: (nothing can be added or
taken away from this judgment!)
Revelation 6:11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
Revelation 19:8 And to her was granted that she should be
arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
Romans 5:17 For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) 18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. 19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.
2 Corinthians 5:18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
