EPHESIANS 1:7

Most people mistakenly think they have to beg God to forgive them. Instead, God has already forgiven. It was His idea done on His own initiative.  No matter what you have done God has already forgiven you! God is not mad at you. Instead He loves you and desires to have a close relationship with you. Yes, God is against sin, because
sin is harmful to humans. But He has already made provision for you to be forgiven and set free from sin.
Jesus Christ paid the price for all your sins and God is no longer holding any sin against you! You have been forgiven. When you accept that, you can begin to receive the benefit of Jesus' sacrifice. Through Jesus we have redemption from the devil and forgiveness for our sins. Wouldn't it be great if you could tell someone who has messed up their life that God is not mad at them and not against them? That He desires to be their friend and help them? 




7 In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace (Ephesians 1:7).
