Bible Answer: Hello Brother kuravackal, Your Brother has repented and asked GOD for forgiveness. GOD has forgave the sin and as far as GOD is concerned, the sin has never happened as long as he has repented. Hebrews 8:12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more. Hebrews 10:2 For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins. Hebrews 10:17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. Psalms 103:12 As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us. Jeremiah 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. 1 John 1:7-9 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If the LORD has forgivin the Sin and has remembered it no more, should not your Church do the same as a body of Christ. He and his Family should be able to partake of all church activities and functions just as any other member would be. I pray that your Church is strenghtened and blessed by doing the will of the LORD and not the will of Man. |
