"The Beauty of Forgiveness"

 

“The Beauty of Forgiveness”

 

Blessed is the one whose transgressions are forgiven; whose sins are covered.  Blessed is the one whose sin the LORD does NOT count against them and in whose spirit is NO deceit.      Psalm 32:1-2

 

I believe that this Psalm, which was penned by King David, gives us a BEAUTIFUL picture of GOD’S FORGIVENESS, for those who are willing to come to Him for His FORGIVENESS, and to be DELIVERED from the GUILT of their TRANSGRESSIONS and to have their SINS COVERED by the PRECIOUS BLOOD of our REDEEMER, the LORD JESUS CHRIST, who PAID in FULL the PRICE for the SALVATION of mankind, with His OWN Life.

 

David says: “BLESSED is the ONE whose TRANSGRESSIONS are FORGIVEN.”  God’s FORGIVENESS is FULL and COMPLETE, it does NOT HOLD animosities against those who have TRANSGRESSED, but it COVERS, the SINS and they are NO LONGER COUNTED against those who are SEEKING GOD’S FORGIVENESS. When David ACKNOWLEDGED his SIN and didn’t try to HIDE it from God, but he CONFESSED his transgressions to God, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART, God FORGAVE not only the TRANSGRESSIONS but also the GUILT of those TRANGRESSIONS.

 

God’s FORGIVENESS, for the SINS of MANKIND, is a TRUE EXAMPLE of His UNFAILING LOVE, which has PROVIDED ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  God’s UNFAILING LOVE was the CATAPULT for His FORGIVENESS. He sent His ONLY SON, JESUS to be the ONE and ONLY SACRIFICE for a LOST and DYING world, a world without HOPE, a CORRUPT, WICKED and DEPRAVED world, that does not POINT anyone to GOD and His FORGIVENESS, but it DRIVES mankind further AWAY from GOD.  And this leads MANY to an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS and NO WAY to ESCAPE after you are there. 

 

Many REJECT GOD’S FORGIVENESS, and REFUSE His Gift of SALVATION, through the SHED BLOOD of JESUS CHRIST.  They are NOT BLESSED, but they are DOOMED to PERISH, because of their UNBELIEF and their REJECTION of God and His Son. 

 

Now, the BEAUTY of GOD’S FORGIVENESS, is that it is FREE to those who will come to Him, and are willing to have their SINS FORGIVEN and NOT COUNTED AGAINST them ever again.  And to

be able to spend their ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS, and to experience God’s AMAZING GRACE, ABUNDANT MERCY, and UNFAILING LOVE, you MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful life-style, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART. CONFESS your sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST ACCEPT His Gift of SALVATION and ENJOY the BEAUTY of GOD’S FORGIVENESS.  Do it NOW, while you still can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!
