                                            He Remembers No More

"For I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more."
                                                       ~ Jeremiah 31:34



JESUS TELLS THE MEN THAT
WERE GOING TO STONE THIS
WOMAN FOR COMMITTING
ADULTERY, LET THE FIRST ONE
THROW A STONE THAT IS
WITHOUT SIN, AND WHEN JESUS
ASKED THE WOMAN, WHERE
HAVE YOUR ACCUSERS GONE, SHE
 SAID I DO NOT KNOW. HE TOLD
 HER GO AND SIN NO MORE.

   "When we know the Lord, we receive the forgiveness of sins. What a joyful discovery is this! How divinely is this promise worded: the Lord promises no more to remember our sins! Can God forget? He says He will, and He means what He says. He will regard us as though we had never sinned. The great atonement so effectually removed all sin that it is to the mind of God no more in existence.

HIS BLOOD WAS SHED FOR
OUR SINS, SO THAT THEY
MAY BE WASHED AWAY.
JESUS SAYS, REPENT OF
YOUR SINS, AND SIN NO MORE. 

  The Great Lord will not remember our sins so as to punish them, or so as to love us one atom the less because of them. When we are mourning over our transgressions and shortcomings, let us at the same time rejoice that they will never be mentioned against us. God's free pardon makes us anxious never again to grieve Him by disobedience."
