Psalm 99:8 “You answered them, O LORD our God; You were to them God-Who-Forgives, Though You took vengeance on their deeds.”‭‭

God always categorized Himself as a forgiving God. Even during the days of the law, God created opportunities to receive forgiveness through animal sacrifices. He never desires to punish His children, but being a just God, the wages of sin had a consequence. 

God’s desire for forgiveness was so evident until He sent the ultimate sacrifice in His Son Jesus. Through Jesus, we receive the forgiveness of past, present, and future sins, reconciliation to God, and a ticket to everlasting life. 

Never think God is counting up our sins and holding them against us. He always has and always will be a loving, forgiving God. 

Receive His forgiveness.
