Subject: Is remorse necessary for forgiveness? |
Bible Note: Greetings. If what you say is truth, “Forgiveness is a conditional promise: if you forgive, you will be forgiven;” It is a fact that truth is not affected by time, what was true say 3000 years ago is still true today. Malachi 3:6 (A) For I am the LORD, I change not; Taking all of the previous in mind, and if we are forgiven on that basis, of our forgiving others; why did Jesus have to die for us to be forgiven; according to what you said, all I have to do, to be forgiven, is for me to forgive other and that makes it right? Where does the following verse come into play? Romans 6:23 (A) For the wages of sin is death; I have forgiven everyone that has owed me anything, does that mean that I am saved as a result? CDBJ |
