It is in our forgiveness of other people’s sins against us that we reveal the fact that we have been truly forgiven by God.
As a result of grace, we have been saved from sin’s penalty. One day we will be saved from sin’s presence. In the meantime we are being saved from sin’s power.
God is not counting our sins against us because He is counting our sins against Christ.
We Christians are secure, realizing that even our failures and our sins are under His control.
