Here is the correct understanding of Jesus position . As mediator on behalf of all of us .
We would all be toast with out Jesus Acting on our behalf . No one can approach God . Without Jesus , he Is intercessor as well as Saviour .
Much more could be said . Martha got it right .
But does God forget? He being God, cannot suddenly have the thought of us just having wronged Him, be obliterated from His Mind - that wouldn't make sense. So, His forgiveness will make us not guilty before Him but not release His Mind from knowing that we were & still are sinners. Even of Jesus when He walked on Earth, it was said of Him in John 2:24,25, "But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men; and needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man." Many people began to believe in Him because of His miracles, but still He did not "commit Himself to them" (or, He didn't put His trust or confidence in their good words about Him), because He knew the true condition of their hearts.
In yours & our situation, we are told to forgive one another & so we should, so that we demonstrate a true heart's response to someone else's wrong against us based on the love of Christ in us. But we need to be prudent, knowing that our hearts are prone to doing evil, & so in our forgiveness of someone else, we remain cautious (i.e. we fully accept that person into our hearts but careful if there happens to be signs of a recurrence of such acts against us). We must forgive but we remain cautious, remembering what we all are.
I am convinced that on my part I failed miserably and would like you to pray for me
I thank God for his divine leading me and show me the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Thank you for the wonderful work you're doing for the spread of the gospel
May God continue to bless and be with you always
Have a blessed new year 2021

I don't understand this, it must be abstract. There are new things made by man every day, it must mean that there are no new earth elements being made or no new things like wind, fire, water etc being made?
Thank you so much.
In " 1 Thessalonians 5:23, "And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ." Paul is expanding on this idea that our whole being in all aspects is right before God. In fact the first part of the verse he explains this by saying "sanctify you wholly". So in a long way yes Paul understood the nature of man as a collective being with separate attributes, living, thinking, and doing.
John 3, where Jesus is speaking to the Pharisee, Nicodemas: Jesus tells him he must be born again. When we are born again, we ask for the baptism of the Holy Spirit. He is the Spirit of Jesus Christ. He is available to be your personal Teacher. He opens up the Bible to you. As you are able, He explains your questions.
It involves daily study of your Bible. Works best if you turn off media and listen for the Holy Spirits voice. It is not audible. He reveals Jesus to your born again spirit. With much practice, you will become more in tune to the Holy Spirits presence.
It's more beneficial to begin in the New Testament, learning just who Jesus is. Once that foundation is secure; you'll understand the Old Testament in your study travels.
Attend a Church that is teaching Bible Scripture. Some of them teach "works" or put more emphasis on counseling and relationships. You grow faster if you are learning scripture and how to enter into Gods Presence with praise and worship.
Let us know how it's going, and if we can help more. Explore all the links out on the red links page. It's all good things to read.

Thank You God Bless!
Secondly, the Bible is absent of any scriptures saying pets will be in heaven so its pure baseless speculation to say one way or the other.
Third, I think it's silly to say all animals go to heaven and all of them have souls and can sin. So, annoying flies, mosquitos and ticks will be in heaven? And a dung beetle or a bacterium or hammerhead shark will read the Bible and go to heaven because they followed Jesus and avoided sin? There is an enormous difference between humans and other animals- we have souls and make thoughtful moral decisions and about right and wrong.
God bless...
