Will God Forgive Us Our Trespasses?

Of Course! Repentance requires your own personal choice. To ask forgiveness Is Our Duty, To Forgive Is His...

And Jesus said unto them, "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.â€

-Matthew 11:28

again, He reminds us in the Old Testament,

â€œI, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake; and I will not remember your sins. Put Me in remembrance; let us contend together; state your case, that you may be acquitted.â€

Brothers and Sisters, don't you know that tho we sin, we are forgiven by the Grace of Jesus Christ on the Cross? His most precious blood that was shed on that cross, yes, that crucifix on Calgary, was for us? The most precious blood of Jesus Christ was shed for my sins, your sins, all of our sins. So that you and I, dear brother and sister, who trust in Him, are washed clean. Purified by the most precious and Divine Blood of Jesus Christ.

So those who turn to the Compassion and Strength of Jesus Christ the Risen Savior Lord, are not in vain, nor are they in transgression. For it is written that those who Trust in the Lord and put faith in Christ are redeemed.

His shame and death on the Cross was the path and sanctification of our sins. Through his shame and death, we have access to Salvation.
------

â€œIn Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace.â€

The necessity in being born again in the water and spirit.

Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. This man came to Jesus by night and said to him, â€œRabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do unless God is with him.â€ Jesus answered him, â€œTruly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.â€ Nicodemus said to him, â€œHow can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?â€ Jesus answered, â€œTruly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

John the Baptist , the last prophet, predicts the coming of the CHRIST, The Son of God.

John answered,

â€œA person cannot receive even one thing unless it is given him from heaven. You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, â€˜I am not the Christ, but I have been sent before him.â€™ The one who has the bride is the bridegroom. The friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly at the bridegroom's voice. Therefore this joy of mine is now complete. He must increase, but I must decrease.â€

He who comes from above is above all. He who is of the earth belongs to the earth and speaks in an earthly way. He who comes from heaven is above all. He bears witness to what he has seen and heard, yet no one receives his testimony. Whoever receives his testimony sets his seal to this, that God is true. For he whom God has sent utters the words of God, for he gives the Spirit without measure. The Father loves the Son and has given all things into his hand. Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him."

Israel Does Not Believe...

But not all the Israelites accepted the good news. For Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed our message?" Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word of Christ. But I ask: Did they not hear? Of course they did:
   "Their voice has gone out into all the earth,
   their words to the ends of the world."Again I ask: Did Israel not understand? First, Moses says,
   "I will make you envious by those who are not a nation;
   I will make you angry by a nation that has no understanding."And Isaiah boldly says,
   "I was found by those who did not seek me;
   I revealed myself to those who did not ask for me." But concerning Israel he says,
   "All day long I have held out my hands
   to a disobedient and obstinate people."

God's Love for Israel...The Remnant of Israel

I ask then: Did God reject his people? By no means! I am an Israelite myself, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin. God did not reject his people, whom he foreknew. Don't you know what the Scripture says in the passage about Elijahâ€”how he appealed to God against Israel: "Lord, they have killed your prophets and torn down your altars; I am the only one left, and they are trying to kill me" ? And what was God's answer to him? "I have reserved for myself seven thousand who have not bowed the knee to Baal." So too, at the present time there is a remnant chosen by grace. And if by grace, then it is no longer by works; if it were, grace would no longer be grace.

What then? What Israel sought so earnestly it did not obtain, but the elect did. The others were hardened, as it is written:
   "God gave them a spirit of stupor,
   eyes so that they could not see
   and ears so that they could not hear,
   to this very day."And David says:
   "May their table become a snare and a trap,
   a stumbling block and a retribution for them.
May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see,
   and their backs be bent forever."

The Gentiles are Saved, Israel are Unbelieving Branches...

St. Paul writes,

Again I ask: Did they stumble so as to fall beyond recovery? Not at all! Rather, because of their transgression, salvation has come to the Gentiles to make Israel envious. But if their transgression means riches for the world, and their loss means riches for the Gentiles, how much greater riches will their fullness bring!

I am talking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch as I am the apostle to the Gentiles, I make much of my ministry in the hope that I may somehow arouse my own people to envy and save some of them. For if their rejection is the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead?

The Gentiles are "Adopted Wild Olive Branches", The Jews are "Cut-Off Natural Branches"...

If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, though a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root, do not boast over those branches. If you do, consider this: You do not support the root, but the root supports you. You will say then, "Branches were broken off so that I could be grafted in." Granted. But they were broken off because of unbelief, and you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but be afraid. For if God did not spare the natural branches, he will not spare you either.

Consider therefore the kindness and sternness of God: sternness to those who fell, but kindness to you, provided that you continue in his kindness. Otherwise, you also will be cut off. And if they do not persist in unbelief, they will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again. After all, if you were cut out of an olive tree that is wild by nature, and contrary to nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how much more readily will these, the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree!

St. Paul talks about loving, positional rank does not matter...

Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with God's people who are in need. Practice hospitality.

Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position.Do not be conceited.

--2 Corinthians 1:3

About praising God in difficult times…

You are not an island separated from your environment by a vast sea. It is doubtful that you wear protective suits of armor or suits to protect you from toxins in the air. You are a very vulnerable human being who responds to your environment, to your surroundings, to the news of the world, to other people, to inner and outer conflicts, to the rage, and to the love that is a part of your world. You (along with the rest of us) live your life as if you are in a soup made up of both the force and power of the Holy Spirit and the dark forces from Satan. You are pushed and pulled in different directions on different days. As you are pushed and pulled, you are to praise God. Not for God’s sake, but for your sake. As you are pushed and pulled, one of the ways you can praise God is to humbly tell Him you love Him. You can speak these words as your silent prayer and you can show Him you love Him by finding ways to pass on His love. Then others who receive His love from you will also find Him in their hearts and souls.

The Love of Christ: The Root of Our Love for One Another

The way this truth fits into the overall series on "The Greatest of These Is Love" is that again and again in the Bible the love of God for us is the root of our love for each other. The reality is that if we do not rest in the love of God for us, we will not be able to love each other. For example, Jesus said in John 13:34,

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another.

His love for us is first, and ours is an echo of it. John 15:12â€“13,

This is My commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends.

His love for us is before and under our love for each other. And it is a deep, deep, unshakable Calvary love.

Ephesians 4:32â€“5:1,

Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you. Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children.

All true love begins with this: God in Christ loved us and forgave us. Then he adopted us so that we are called his children. Then he lavished his ongoing love on us in the family. And nowâ€”and only now, on the basis of all thatâ€”he says, "Imitate me." Be imitators of God "as loved children." And mark this! Be an imitator of Godâ€”not as a peon admirer in the audience. Not as an insecure little kid ogling at a ball player's baggy shorts. Not as a beginning musician listening to the CD of her favorite, but unknown, maestro. But, "as loved children." "Be imitators of God as loved children." It's the love of God in Christ for us that draws out and empowers our imitating love for each other. It's because we love the way our Father is that makes us want to be that way.

The Greatest Commandment

34 Hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees got together. 35 One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question: 36 â€œTeacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?â€

37 Jesus replied: â€œâ€˜Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.â€™ 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: â€˜Love your neighbor as yourself.â€™ 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.â€
