If you are like me, there are times that we struggle with the idea of forgiveness. I was thinking about Hebrews 8:12 today and my mind was flooded with questions. The Hebrew writer highlights what Jeremiah had foretold in regard to the new covenant. "I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more." Does God really mean that? Is that the big question in your mind as you read this? The word "all" does mean everything. If that isn't convincing enough let's dare to be logical for a few moments. God is a holy God and He cannot look upon sin. So if we are going to have a relationship with Him and have Him hear our prayers, our sin would need to be gone. I admit that I cannot understand this because God is doing something that I am not capable of because regardless of how hard I try I remember all the sins I have committed. This verse is loaded with good news. There is no need for me or anyone else to carry around the weight of past sin because it has been taken completely away by the blood of Christ.
