AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 John 1:9 If we [freely] admit that we have sinned and confess our sins, He is faithful and just [true to His own nature and promises], and will forgive our sins and cleanse us continually from all unrighteousness [our wrongdoing, everything not in conformity with His will and purpose]. |
Bible Question: In john 3 it says that God sent His Son so that whoever believes in Him shall not persish but have eternal life. It also says that God did not send His Son to judge the world. I have a question about this. Now that Jesus is in heaven interceding for the Saints, does He judge us when we come to Him? I'm a little confused about this. I've been trying to come back to God for a long time and I don't really know where I stand right now when it comes to if God forgives me for backsliding or not. I know that no sin is to great for God to forgive except one, but I really don't think I have committed that sin. What do you guys think? |
Bible Answer: LJ777, Read I John 1:9 and John 8:31,32 I think they will help you. I don't know about being judged when we go to God but there are consequences when we do sin but God does and will forgive us. It's a matter of us going to God with repentant hearts. Take a look at Isaiah 59:1,2 and then look at Hebrews 12:5-13 where it refers to Gods discipline in our life I think this will help you. In Him, lionheart |
