Good Morning!

This morning I just want to remind you of the Truth that everything in scriptures is for us. If there’s a promise to the people of God in the scriptures, it’s for you and I, hallelujah!

Our Father promised that He would forgive our sins whenever we call out to Him. That promise was first made to the people of God during the period of the old covenant, the Old Testament of the Bible. And that promise continued through the Crucifixion and Resurrection of Jesus and until He returns once again one day.

However, there’s another Truth that is so, so important to embrace. That is that He chooses to also *forget* our sin! Wow, He forgets our sin!

As you can see from the following scriptures, our Father is not a respecter of persons but has given Himself to all people groups, to all of His creation! What He promised to His people during the days of the Old Covenant is for us today because He is the Father of all!

“…you are A chosen race, A royal priesthood, A holy nation, A people for God’s own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; for you once were not A people, but now you are the people of God; you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy. — 1 Peter 2:9-10

Jeremiah 31:33-34
33. “But this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” declares the Lord, “I will put My law within them and on their heart I will write it; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. 
34. They will not teach again, each man his neighbor and each man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they will all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them,” declares the Lord, “for I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.”

 Acts 10:34-35
Gentiles Hear Good News
34. Opening his mouth, Peter said:
“I most certainly understand now that God is not one to show partiality, 
35. but in every nation the man who fears Him and does what is right is welcome to Him.

Galatians 3:25-29
25. But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor
26. For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 
27. For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 
28. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 
29. And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s descendants, heirs according to promise.

Romans 2:9-11
9. There will be tribulation and distress for every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek, 
10. but glory and honor and peace to everyone who does good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 
11. For there is no partiality with God.

Hebrews 10:15-17
15. And the Holy Spirit also testifies to us; for after saying,
16. “This is the covenant that I will make with them
After those days, says the Lord:
I will put MY laws upon their heart,
And on their mind I will write them,”
He then says,
17. “And their sins and their lawless deeds
I will remember no more.”
Hebrews 8:12
12. “For I will be merciful to their iniquities,
And I will remember their sins no more.”
