We Possess And Give Unconditional Forgiveness


Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works, Saying, blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. Romans 4:6-7 

Our Father tells us that we are righteous without ever doing anything to be righteous. Our Father forgives us our sins regardless of what we have done. This is why we are blessed. We have complete freedom and redemption and we never did anything to earn them. We didn’t pray to earn this freedom. We didn’t attend church to receive it. We didn’t even perform the work of asking for it. It was all just grace, our Father just decided, for whatever reason, to give it to us. The glorious Truth is that we did absolutely nothing on our own, there was no work at all that we ever did, that brought this glorious state of righteousness on us.

Now here is the power of this Truth for us, we now have the mind of Christ, 1 Corinthians 2:16. So if this is how our Father acted towards us, this is how our mind now acts towards others. This is why we are able to live in so much peace, even when all Hell is breaking out around us. We forgive before people ask us to forgive them. We are empowered by the very thoughts of our Father to intercede for others whether they know it or not. Peoples sins are covered and forgiven by us regardless of what they have done and apart from any work that they have done. 

Our Father causes us to sow this unconditional forgiveness so that we reap this unconditional forgiveness. You and I are now empowered to think and act just like God. We are our Father’s instruments of forgiveness. He uses us to forgive all, apart from any works that they have done. This is our gift to them and this is what causes us to see beyond all the evil of the world and see the perfect righteousness of our Kingdom.
