-Blessings be upon you!

--Thank you for coming to visit the 'GOOD NEWS/INTERNET EVANGELISM' forum.

--There are so many religions in this old world. That is where people miss Jesus. Jesus is not one of the ways to Father God. No, Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." -(JOHN 14:6) Jesus is the only way to Father God.~~

In this fallen world, since the 'Garden of Eden', we all are sinners in need of Jehovah God's forgiveness. The Bible says, "There is none good, no not one." The Ten Commandments were given by Jehovah God to Moses. He wrote them down for all mankind to 'know' the requirements of the Father. Jehovah God is Holy, Just, and Righteous. He can not exist in darkness, 'SIN'. "Without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins." (Hebrews 9:22)

You will never find a 'perfect' person. Jesus Christ was the only Person who ever lived that never sinned. You may ask, 'How can that possibly be?' Because Jesus came to earth in flesh, straight from Jehovah God, the 'God-Man'. The Father cloaked himself in flesh, to show us the way to Heaven.

We accept this (salvation), by faith, once we 'come as a little child', and accept His 'free gift'. Jesus died on the Cross to forgive the sins of all people. (John 3:16) That does not mean all 'cultures'. It means each individual person, must accept this 'free gift' personally. Most of us have heard the expression, "Nothing is for free." Friend, it was not free for Jesus. He had to die a very painful, brutal death to take upon himself the sins of the whole world. No one else could do this, because we are all sinners. The price for sin is blood, we read in the Old Testament. The first blood sacrifice was when Adam and Eve sinned by disobeying God. They sewed together fig leaves to cover their naked bodies. They never even knew they were 'naked' until their eyes were opened to 'know the difference between good and evil.'
Our Lord called out to them in the Garden but they hid themselves, they were scared. Of course the Father knew exactly where they were.
The shedding of blood for the forgiveness of sin was done by the Father, as he covered Adam and Eve with garments of skin, from animals (see Genesis Chapter 3).

Friend, the LORD does not want a 'religious person'. He wants a personal relationship with each person.

--The God Who Forgives
---(Please read: Matthew 6:9-13)

--Jesus gave His followers a pattern for prayer that includes seeking forgiveness every day. The invitation to regular repentance is not a means of renewing our salvation, but rather a maintenance plan for our fellowship with the Lord.

The Lord’s substitutionary payment for our transgressions means that we can look forward to an eternity spent in God’s presence instead of getting the punishment we deserve. When we trust Jesus as our Savior, our sins are forgiven forever—the stains from our past, present, and future wrongs are wiped from our record. The tendency to sin, however, remains part of the human experience, though its influence decreases the more we’re conformed to Christ’s image.

With the exception of Jesus Christ, no person is perfect, so while on earth, we will all continue to deal with sin and its consequences. The Lord’s admonition to seek daily forgiveness is a reminder to confess our sins and turn away from them because we are forgiven.

God’s grace is not a license to sin; instead, it’s a reason to continuously pursue righteousness. Bad attitudes, thoughtless actions, and unkind speech do not fit who we are as children of God. We’re new creatures in Christ; we were bought for a price and set free to live as partakers of His grace.

Salvation makes a way for us to enter God’s presence, while regular confession and repentance keep the pathway well maintained and free of obstruction (1 John 1:9). A saint will tap into God’s forgiveness every day of his or her life.
