I John 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins
and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
When a guilty person stands before a judge and confesses his
crime he gets a sentence, from possibly a few years to life in prison, and a hefty amount of
bail is set.
When a guilty person stands before God and confesses, he gets
forgiveness, and his guilt is removed, and he is set free to walk without shame
or fear.
God is a righteous God, but when we fall before him in
humility and ask forgiveness for wrong attitudes or actions, he is faithful to
forgive. Even if we stumble and fall
again…and again.
He’s wipes our slate clean.
Guilt is erased. It’s as if we
never sinned.
Pretty amazing…this faithful God we serve.
