“…for they shall all know me…says the Lore; for I will forgive their iniquity and remember their sin no more.”  If confession is good for the soul, absolution is even better for the soul.  The only words sweeter to hear than “I love you,” are the words, “I forgive you.”  To have a broken relationship restored is so satisfying that words cannot describe it.  But if forgiveness is sweet how much sweeter to hear, “I will remember your sin NO MORE.”  The evil things we have thought, said, or done will no longer hang over our heads.  It is like wiping the black board  What was there is no longer there.  What was there is like it never even existed.  Forgiveness is not only saying, “I forgive you,” but it is also saying, “I will never hold it over you.”  The Messiah will not only forgive us, but will make sure that our sins are totally erased from all memory.  Amen
