Satan tells us lies. Our own sinful nature believes them sometimes. Satan will continue to throw our past sins into our mind and tell us we are no good and remind us of things we used to do. Satan wants us to forget promises from God. He wants us to live defeated, complacent, lukewarm, without victory, with wavering hope, little faith, no peace, and without joy. God says; He will not repay us according to our sin, our past sins are no more, they are cast behind His back, they are as far as the east is from the west, we are redeemed, we are forgiven, we are a child of Him, we have been brought back from the pit of hell.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”
The path to eternity in Hell is certain without Jesus Christ. The path to eternity in Heaven is certain with Jesus Christ. There is no forgiveness of Sin apart from Jesus Christ. The path to forgiveness for all past and future sin is through confessing them to God and trusting in, clinging to, and relying on Jesus Christ and through His redeeming work on the cross. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. We can be confident, by faith, that we are forgiven and our sins are washed away. We can live victoriously and give glory and praise to God for His steadfast love, grace, and mercy.
