Does God literally forgive and forget all our sins once we repent and put our trust in Him?

The evidence found in God’s word surrounding how He deals with our former sins, is a statement of complete and utter forgiveness. Once we say “Yes” to Jesus, our sins will have been permanently removed! We don’t have to worry about them ever coming back to haunt us.

1 John 4:7-10 says, “Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God. But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love. God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him. This is real love—not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins.

Psalm 103:10-12 says this, “He has not dealt with us according to our sins [as we deserve], nor rewarded us [with punishment] according to our wickedness. For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is His loving kindness toward those who fear and worship Him. He has removed our sins as far from us as the east is from the west.

Paul says in Romans 8:1-2, “So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death.”

Have you been freed from the power of sin in your life that leads to death? If you’d like further evidence of God’s love for you and His desire for you to know Him and to spend all of eternity with Him, please don’t hesitate to reach out, as it would be my pleasure to continue this conversation at your convenience.
