forgiven

That is who I was yesterday. Today I walk with God.

To me, many of what seemed to be Bible contradictions only pointed to the grace of Christ. It is not so much a rule book on how to be holy as it is a prophecy of the One who can make you holy. In this, I see God as the least bigoted of all in existence: While men always, in their hearts, delight in vengeance for being wronged, God is the only Being who wants to free you from the penalty of His own laws.

Forgiveness is a gift to the one who is hurting.

I was taught that you can__ expect to be forgiven when you continuously commit the same sin over and over again.

None of us deserve the good things that come our way. It's by grace, love and forgiveness that any of us experience joy.

This doctrine of forgiveness of sin is a premium on crime. 'Forgive us our sins' means "Let us continue in our iniquity." It is one of the most pernicious of doctrines, and one of the most fruitful sources of immorality. It has been the chief cause of making Christian nations the most immoral of nations. In teaching this doctrine Christ committed a sin for which his death did not atone, and which can never be forgiven. There is no forgiveness of sin. Every cause has its effect; every sinner must suffer the consequences of his sins.

It is gracious to overlook and offence.

You you think you need to forgive someone...you got it all wrong.

When we are kind and forgiving, we will be forgiven.

To forgive is to refuse to contaminate the future with the errors of the past.

No one can claim perfection, that's why everyone needs a second chance ad infinitum

There is no sin, no crime, no evil, God cannot forgive

A man is called a sinner not because he sins more than others but because he defends he sins and glories in them and is unwilling to seek forgiveness

A man is called a saint not because he does no longer sin but because he recognizes his weakness and seeks for forgiveness every time he falls

As it peaks over the horizon, does not a sunrise whisper the opportunity to try again. And if the day passes and our efforts were stunted by the bane of our insecurities or blunted by the challenges of life, does not a sunset invite us to rest before it whispers the same message the next morning?

Take a walk through the garden of forgiveness and pick a flower of forgiveness for everything you have ever done. When you get to that time that is now, make a full and total forgiveness of your entire life and smile at the bouquet in your hands because it truly is beautiful.

Forgiving someone else doesn't give them a free pass. It gives you a free pass to move on.

Women weren't to be trusted. Or forgiven. Men weren't to be trusted either. Not a woman alive would dispute that.
