Then you’ll have to rewrite the Scriptures. The ones I originally sent you said, “their sins will I remember no more.”

What would you call that? He forgets our sins, when and ONLY when they have been covered by the blood of Christ. That ONLY happens when we repent and ask forgiveness and cleansing.

If He did remember THOSE sins He’d be Welshing on the sacred compact He had with His Son, Who bled and died to pay for them.

If you’re REALLY concerned about it, I suggest you read and study it out for yourself. I apparently am not getting through.

Goodbye.

You might want to contemplate whether the Hebrew words for "remember" (Zakhar) and "forget" (Shakach and Nashah) are exact antonyms.

While in 21st century English, "remember" and "forget" describe largely mental activity, in the old Testament they described actions as well as thoughts. To remember someone was to take action with regard to that person while to forget someone was to forsake him. Read, for instance, Hosea 9:9 or Ezekiel 33: 15-16.

When God promises to "remember not" our sin, He doesn't forget the sin (or forsake us), he promises that He will not act upon it in judgment of us.
