He is-The Character of God: Forgiveness
Description
Divine forgiveness extends beyond mere pardon—it completely erases sin, lifting our guilt and removing our burden as far as the east is from the west. Through Christ's sacrifice on the cross, God demonstrates the lavish nature of His forgiveness, wiping our slate clean rather than keeping a running tally of our transgressions. In today's podcast, we discuss further some of the following:
• God's forgiveness is uniquely divine—He intentionally chooses to remember our sins no more
• Unlike human forgiveness which is often partial or conditional, God's forgiveness is complete and abundant
• We can forgive someone while still holding them accountable for their actions
• We must surrender our right to be judge and jury, allowing God to handle justice His way
• God's forgiveness flows from His covenant relationship with us, not from our merit
• Our identity in Christ means we are completely forgiven—past, present, and future
