Day 4 - Repentance & Forgiveness
Written by Pastor Robert McCready
Beloved, repentance and forgiveness are inseparably joined in God’s gracious plan. One cannot truly exist without the other: repentance is the heartfelt turning away from sin, while forgiveness is the merciful restoration granted by God through Christ. The Church of Jesus Christ lives in true unity because it is made up only of those who have met the Savior, beheld His perfect holiness, felt the weight of their own sinfulness, and turned from their old ways in humble repentance. This is the beautiful reality of the true Church: former sinners, now saved by grace alone, transformed into saints—all to the glory of our great and merciful God.
Scripture Verse: 1 John 1:9-10
