I’m no Bible expert. I wish I knew ancient Greek and Hebrew,butane thought come to my mind… While Jesus was dying on the cross Be said, “Father forgive them for they know not what they do”. I used to see that as Jesus forgiving those people who crucified Him on that day. However; I wonder if that was more general and was speaking to the Father to forgive all of us? Last, present and future. Didn’t Jesus go willingly to the cross? If He didn’t want to go no force in the universe would have had a chance to place God Yawheh there. He willingly sanctified Himself so that through His death and resurrection we could be free from our sins,so could it be that when we who believe call on the name of the LORD and decide to follow Jesus. The Father remembers the Sacrifice made and the voice of His Son saying, “Father forgive them for they know not what they do”, so God the Father will forgive us, because Jesus truly is our redeemed and our Judge.

James 4:3-10

8 Mar

“3) You ask and you do not receive, because you ask with the wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures. 4) You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. 5) Or do you think that the Scripture speaks to no purpose: “He jealously desires the Spirit which He has made to dwell in us”? 6) But He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says, “GOD IS OPPOSED TO THE PROUD, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE.” 7) Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. 8) Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9) Be miserable and mourn and weep; let your laughter be turned into mourning and your joy to gloom. 10) Humble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.”
