A Bridge Between Sin, Transgressions, and Jesus ChristThis blog is very simple. This is titled a bridge between sin, transgressions, and Jesus Christ. First, I would like to mention the definitions of sin, transgressions, and trespasses. 1. Transgressions are actions that are enormously and excessively wrong. You knew you were wrong and you did it anyway. 2. Trespasses are when saints miss the mark. This means that you are intentionally missing the mark on purpose. 3. Sin is when a person commits a mistake or an offense that is either minor or serious in nature. 4. Debt is a property and ownership; you owe something because of your actions. Sin is really you have broken a law. Sin is that you have broken a known law and the transgressions are the repercussions that come afterwards. Next, according to John A. Studebaker, Jr; a sin is one of the greatest obstacles of the church today is this very issue. We no longer see ourselves as sinners’ in need of forgiveness. Perhaps, sin used to be a problem, but now we’ve outgrown that. So while the church has a solution for the problem of sin, it’s a non-problem in the eyes of most Americans at least not a serious problem. Further, when it comes to sin, transgression, and Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ is the bridge to mankind and sin. What I am trying to say here is that in my personal life, I know that according to the 2nd step in AA/NA there is a power that is greater than myself that can restore me to sanity. This is one of my steps that allow me to realize that I am not all by myself. God and Jesus Christ are there whenever I need them. I know that Jesus Christ is the mediator between man and God. I know for myself that God is able to do all things; as well as Jesus Christ His Son. I know that my expectations might be different than any average person. I know that what I expect to do is survive in a changing society that has many different people from various nationalities. In addition, I know that sin is both avoidable and non avoidable in many cases. I know that no matter how I am in my life, I cannot avoid sin. I can avoid committing any form of sin; especially; the violent acts that exist in America. I know for myself as a person in recovery, I can control my speech and tongue whenever I am talking with others. I know that I am still a work in progress. This means that I am not a perfect person, but as long as there is Jesus Christ in my life as my personal savior, I know that I am healed from all of my injuries. I am healed from all of my sicknesses and illnesses. I know that Jesus Christ is the one who is responsible for blessing each day of the week. Moreover, we all have fallen short of the glory of God. I know that we are all born into sin. Ever since the first sin had taken place between Adam and Eve, it has been very difficult for people to accept the first concept of original sin. For some, many believe that the original sin was only a myth. This is according to Charles Darwin Theory as well as those who do not believe in God. Just because the first sin had taken place, does not mean that mankind is completely doomed. We all still have a chance to be with Jesus Christ. I still have a chance to be with Him because I believe that He died for my sins personally and Jesus Christ died and came back to life. Therefore, I believe Jesus Christ is the bridge between sin, transgression, debt, and trespasses. Everybody on earth belongs to God. The Lord said to me personally in a dream that He is not finished with me yet. This means that God has a great deal of tasks for me to complete for Him. Jesus Christ has expectations for us as well. Jesus Christ is somebody; he is a spirit that exists inside of all of us. Holiness is on top of the line. When you become a child of God, you are somebody. All souls belong to God. Even if you commit sin itself, your soul belongs to Christ. Call on Jesus; help is immediate. Keep on praying because praying helps when it comes to communicating with Jesus Christ. Also, grace is something that you didn’t deserve. Grace is a gift. This is a special gift that God has for man through His son Jesus Christ. We have to accept the gift. We should accept this through faith. Grace is an unmerited favor. Faith is the knowledge of knowing who God is with going through judgment. It is the knowledge if knowing Jesus without proof; not of works. It is not enough. Sanctifying faith is when we do our works because it is your worship to the Lord. Finally, we are alive in Jesus Christ each day of our living lives. We will be lifted up and sit with Him each day as long as we believe. This is my bridge between Jesus Christ and myself. I am trying to say that a bridge between God, Jesus Christ, man, and sin is very important. This is a bridge that is very important in our lives. For instance, God is in charge of everything in life. Jesus Christ is second in command and man- himself as well as women 🙌 👏!

Forgiveness

Is It True That We Have To Forgive Each Person 490 Times?

By: Anthony Joseph Hopkins

        Praise The Lord Everyone!! Praise The Lord!! How are all of you doing today?  Fine, I hope.  I have a very important question to ask all of you.  Is it true that we have to forgive each person 490 times?  The answer to this question is yes.  We have to forgive everyone for what each person have done to you.

I used to have a problem with forgiveness a long time ago.  This is because I used to get abused and neglected as a child as well as an adult.  I want to let everyone know that it is not very easy apologizing and accepting apologies from other people.  I feel good right now because I have learned how to forgive others while attending church as a child.  At first, I used to get upset when others have hurt me.  I used to run away from God.  It is very serious when it comes to forgiveness.  This means that I have to forgive each person living on this earth 490 times.  I literally understand right now what it takes to accept other people.  I meditated on this topic before I decided to type it.

        Next, I am very happy that I am the person that I am right now because I have learned a brand new behavior.  It is called forgiving other people.  The first thing that I had to do is ask God for forgiveness in all of my sins.  I have to ask God to accept me as I am as a human being.  God really loves me.  He literally loves all of us.

        Further, I had to confess with my mouth to the Lord Jesus and believe it inside of my heart.  I really believe that God had raised Jesus Christ from the dead: You will be saved.  I am just happy that I have learned a new behavior, and it makes the Lord very happy that I am forgiving others, and accepting each other in love.

I have to realize that I really have to be very careful when it comes to dealing with my own emotions.  I have come to the realization that I am a brand new creation in Christ Jesus.  He will never leave you, nor forsake you.  I am very happy that I have Jesus Christ as my Personal Savior.  The very thing that I am doing is imitating the behavior of Jesus Christ.  I know that it is not going to be an easy journey: However, God is with me!  I also have to give other people credit for molding and shaping my overall behavior.  God works through people.  There have been people that were involved in my life; just to see me do something positive in my life.

        Moreover, I want to inform all of you that I know that I have to give an account of myself to God.  The reason why I said 490 times is simply because 70X7=490.  I have been doing the math.  It is that God is watching all of us from heaven.  I will admit that I had to take Anger Management classes for a total of 8 years.  I had to learn how to get my emotions in check.  I understand that God is doing for us more than we are doing for ourselves.  This is a fact of life that God is doing for all of us.

        In Addition, I really love all of you very much.  Do you know that God gives us instructions even while we are sleeping inside of our bed at night?  God speaks to us in many, many ways.  I am so excited to share this information because I want others to change for the better.  I am not a self-righteous person.  I am a person who accepts everyone as Children of God.  Is it true that we have to forgive other people 490 times?  The answer is a definite yes.

I want to inform everyone that we all have the Holy Spirit inside of us.  I want to say that 1st Corinthians 3:16 says: Do you not know that you are the Temple of The Living God, and the Holy Spirit dwells inside of us?  This is the truth.  I am so thrilled to help others like I was helped before by other people.  I am so happy that I am blessed each day when I get up, and each day when I lay down on top of my bed.

Also, I want to say that God is with me every single day of the week.  I just want everyone to please keep me in your prayers because I want to live according to the Word of God.  What is the definition of the word forgive?  The answer to this question is stop feeling angry or resentful toward (someone) for an offense, flaw, or mistake. “I don’t think I’ll ever forgive David for the way he treated her” stop feeling angry or resentful toward someone for (an offense, flaw, or mistake).”He was not a man who found it easy to forgive and forget” cancel (a debt).”He proposed that their debts should be forgiven”. What is the biblical meaning of forgiveness?

The Bible has plenty to say about forgiveness. … The Greek word translated as “forgive” in the New Testament, aphiēmi, carried a wide range of meanings, including to remit (a debt), to leave (something or someone) alone, to allow (an action), to leave, to send away, to desert or abandon, and even to divorce.  I had to let go of self and live for Jesus Christ.


            Finally, I had to learn to allow God to help me to let go of the things from my past.  I am just happy and ready to serve Jesus Christ.  Forgiveness when it comes to the 490 times thing is endless.  All that I am really saying that we have to forgive others on a regular basis.  This is a life- long process.  It takes a lot of progress and effort on our part when it comes to making a difference in the lives of others.  I am a very nice person, who have come a very long way in my personal life.  I had to forgive people for taking advantage of me.  In some cases, I put myself in that situation for others to oppress me.  I have to examine my role in all of my doings.

        In Conclusion, please remember to always think before your act.  I have to consider all of my ways by thinking before I decide to do anything.  It only takes a thought that would cause all of us to react in a positive or negative manner.  Is it true that we have to forgive each person 490 times?  Absolutely!!  This is a life-long process that lasts forever.  We are being watched by God and His Son Jesus Christ on a daily basis.  Thank you for reading my essay.
