Luke 24:47 (NLT) 47\u00a0It was also written that this message would be proclaimed in the authority of his name to all the nations, beginning in Jerusalem: \u2018There is forgiveness of sins for all who repent<\/span>.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

As I was recently listening to my Bible while getting ready for my day, I heard this verse and it stuck with me.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

There were two key things that stood out. Let\u2019s talk about them!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

First, what initially caught my attention was the fact that the word, \u201call\u201d, was used.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This means that \u201cthis message\u201d mentioned here is for everyone.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

There is nobody left out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

God does not discriminate against anyone.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This means that no matter what nation we are from, no matter what color our skin is, no matter what our income bracket is and no matter what skills or talents we have (or lack), God is not prejudice and He will not withhold His message from us because of these factors, or any others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

So, what is this message that He gives to us impartially?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

That\u2019s actually point #2 that caught my attention. It is this; \u201cThere is forgiveness of sins for all who repent\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

You see, forgiveness of sins is available to all. But there is a condition to be met. What is that condition?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Repentance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The word says that forgiveness is available for all who repent! So, this means that forgiveness is not<\/em> available to those who do not<\/em> repent.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Ooh, this is something that\u2019s pretty important if we look at it sincerely wanting to know the truth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Sin separates us from God. It creates a chasm, a gap, between us and Him. And until we repent and ask for forgiveness, that gap remains.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

That is not my opinion, nor the opinion of anyone else. It\u2019s what God\u2019s word says.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Sin is serious. It should never be whitewashed or sugar-coated.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Thankfully, God offers forgiveness. We just have to be willing to lay our sin aside, walk away from it (repent), and ask Him to forgive us for what we have done.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

If we are sincere in our repentance, He willingly forgives us. It\u2019s that easy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It\u2019s important for all of us to admit that we sin. Sadly, it\u2019s part of human nature.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

But God, in His mercy, has offered a way for us to be forgiven. It\u2019s up to us to accept His offer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
