Forgiven IndeedPosted May-16-07 06:12:55 PDT But He knows the way that I take; when He has tested me, I will come forth as gold.
Job 23:10
Eliphaz had tried to condemn Job by identifying some secret which he may have committed. Here Job declares his confidence in his integrity and God's justice. We are always likely to have some hidden sin in our lives, sin we don't even know about because God's standards are so high and our performance is so imperfect. If we are true believers, however, we know that all our sins are forgiven because of what Christ did on the cross on our behalf. His forgiveness and cleansing are sufficient; they overrule our nagging doubts. The Holy Spirit in us is our proof that we are forgiven in God's eyes even though we may feel guilty at times. If we, like Joe, are truly seeking God, than we can stand up to others' accusations as well as our own nagging doubts. If God has forgiven and accepted us, we are forgiven, indeed.
God Bless you,
J.H.
