JESUS PAID IT ALL

“And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God” Hebrews 10:11-12 (KJV)
Jesus Christ rose from the grave and said: “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, all power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:” (Matthew 28:18-19 KJV)
In the book of Mark 16:17-18: “And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.”
And so they went everywhere preaching the gospel. And God confirmed the word with signs and wonders following. Anytime God wants to deal with us, He looks at Jesus Christ. Since Jesus cannot be denied; we can never be denied. Our sins and our iniquities, He remembers no more. So, stop telling God about your sin. He doesn’t even know whether it ever exists. “For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more”(Hebrew 8:12 KJV). Why? Is it that God is soft on sin? Is it that He is now ignoring or overlooking sin? No! He said He won’t remember it again because the blood of Jesus has eradicated it.
Your sin doesn’t exist because the blood of Jesus went into your past, came into your present, and also moved into your future and looked for any sin that will ever have any effect in your life, and eradicated it so that you can walk in liberty. Stand therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ has set you free. Walk-in liberty. Walk-in victory. You are a child of the Most-High God. Heaven reckons on you. Your matter matters to heaven.
