Forgiveness
God and Jesus will pardon and have been forgiving sin and pardoning iniquity for thousands of years. God did not send His son into the world to condemn the world, but that through Him the world might be saved. This is found in John 3:17. This lesson will show how God looks at sinners; we can call it, Sinners in the hands of an angry God. (Really God is not angry). Read the 15th chapter of Luke. In the chapter three things are lost; sheep, coins, and a son. The point is emphasized that God is more interested in saving the lost than collecting the saved. This is why He says those that are saved are lost, but those that lose everything for Him shall be saved. We are all sinners, (we are not adulterers, thieves, and murderers), and all of our righteousness is like filthy rags. There are some finger-pointers who consider it a privilege to accuse somebody of something. But we are equal in the eyes of God. When you point a finger there are three pointing back at you. Your finger-pointing is worse than any accusation. Sinners in the hands of an angry God will be forgiven.

God is the Judge and is the only one who can forgive sin. There are seven deadly sins that will not be forgiven and they are not the Christian ones that are not sins at all. We are only required to forgive someone who truly repents and it is a four-step process. Remorse, confession, restitution, and most importantly, change. When the Messiah comes, the wicked who are also called "the guilty" will literally burst into flames. There is no fire in hell, the fire is going to be on earth. The Messiah will literally set the world on fire and the enemies of God will be the first to perish. Psalm 37:20. "...the enemies of the Lord shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume, into smoke shall they consume away". Psalm 97:3. "A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about". I call this VWD Day, the first "day of the Lord", and fire is a symbol of holiness. After this, there will be two more Judgments by fire.

In Acts 9:13 ... That much evil is done to Thy saints in Jerusalem. In alot of other places states that we are saints. Also Fred if you're gonna be posting many topics, you need to correct the replies because some are going off the true words that are in the bible. It's your job to do this since you are the topic poster. Becareful judgement starts at the pulpit.

These are adults and not children. I don't need to correct every mistake. If anyone has a bad idea. Life will correct the error.
