Forgiven and Cleansed
"If we confess our sins"
this should be a positive step
as we are seeking healing
by turning towards God
"he is faithful and just to forgive our sins"
we are reassured that God will forgive
and remove all our sins
"and to cleanse us from all righteousness"
we should follow the mosaic law
of wanting to be cleansed
if we do not confess our sins
we live in darkness and God
will punish us because
he can't let sin go unpunished
we should come to our senses
be born again through God
and be right with God
be purified in our thoughts
when we ask forgiveness
we shouldn't label ourselves
"Christian Bars of Soap"
when asking for forgiveness
over and over for the same sin
we should be cleansed not to sin again!
