There are a lot of hurting people
who will not allow themselves to be forgiven by God because they
don’t know what the Bible says. They mistakenly believe there is no
such thing as a free gift and apply this skeptical attitude towards
God, somehow believing they have to pay for the atonement provided
by Jesus on the cross, when in fact it is a free gift to anyone who
is willing to repent and receive it. Jesus said, “If ye continue in
my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; and ye shall know the
truth, and the truth shall make you free... If the Son therefore
shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” If you are struggling
to accept God’s forgiveness, it’s simple to have a clean slate with
God. The question remains: can you accept God’s forgiveness? |
