DECLARATION FOR FORGIVENESS [From GREATER ATTENTION: LERW, YEAR D]
Yes, people are slaves to whatever masters them, but those who repent and confess their sins in true humility have a good Lord who is unsurpassed, the Master who has bought them for freedom by the gift of his own Son. And if this same God, who saved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood on the world of the ungodly; if he rescued Lot, a righteous man greatly distressed by the licentiousness of the lawless, then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trial; for indeed the one who calls us to enter life through the narrow gate has struggled through that gate ahead of us, has opened the way for us, and in this way has delivered us from death to life. Know that, in Jesus Christ, we are given the victory over sin that he himself gained on our behalf. Therefore, be at peace in the knowledge that in Christ we are forgiven and free to enter into the fullness of life.
