I know that the Lord God and the Lord Jesus forgive us of our sins, but can they erase them from their memory? Can they forgive and forget our transgressions?

Hebrews 10:14-18 New King James Version (NKJV)

14 For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are being [a]sanctified.

15 But the Holy Spirit also witnesses to us; for after He had said before,

16 “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord: I will put My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them,” 17 then He adds, “Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.” 18 Now where there is [b]remission of these, there is no longer an offering for sin.

This is Worthy!

Amen. Yes, He can. 

Micah 7:19 KJV: He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.

I am grateful for the responses to the questions. I do praise the Lord for their great mercy and the fact that they can forget. There are more scriptures that state this. But I hope you don't mind if we go a little deeper with a few more questions and hope that iron will sharpen iron.

If the Lord forgets our iniquities and our sins and once again, I believe he does. Then I have another question:  What is the requirement for this?

Now that is a way to kick off my Friday!  Something I knew in my heart, but affirmed in scripture posted by my brothers and sisters!  I have not been on here very long, but I know that I am going to love it!

Here is one way. This is one of many favorite hymns from childhood. 

Trust and Obey

Trust and Obey

Hymn Writer ~ John H. Sammis, 1846-1919

Hymn Music ~ Daniel B. Towner, 1850-1919




 

Stanza 1:

When we walk with the Lord

In the light of His word,

What a glory He sheds on our way!

While we do His good will,

He abides with us still,

And with all who will trust and obey.




 

Refrain:

Trust and obey, for there's no other way

To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.




 

Stanza 2:

Not a burden we bear,

Not a sorrow we share,

But our toil He doth richly repay;

Not a grief or a loss,

Not a frown or a cross,

But is blest if we trust and obey.




 

(Refrain)




 

Stanza 3:

But we never can prove

The delights of His love

Until all on the altar we lay;

For the favor He shows,

For the joy He bestows,

Are for them who will trust and obey.




 

(Refrain)




 

Stanza 4:

Then in fellowship sweet

We will sit at His feet,

Or we'll walk by His side in the way;

What He says we will do,

Where He sends we will go;

Never fear, only trust and obey.




 

(Refrain)

I suspect he forgets nothing. Isn't it better that way? Isn't it good enough that he forgives?

Absolutely! 

Psalm 103: 10-12
10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins,
Nor punished us according to our iniquities.

11 For as the heavens are high above the earth,
So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him;
12 As far as the east is from the west,
So far has He removed our transgressions from us.

Matthew Poole's Commentary

The guilt of our sins from our persons and consciences. The sense is, He hath fully pardoned them, so as never to remember them more, as he promiseth, Jeremiah 31:34 Hebrews 10:17.

You have to be in the Body Of Christ. Do that by simply resting in the Gospel Of Paul , given to him by Jesus, and found in 1Cor15:1-4. it is a Gospel Of Grace. Don’t add Law to it.Law cancels Grace.
