history

I’m not surprised that God has chosen not to remember our sins.
Why would he defile his mind with memories of evil?
Love remembers no evil. I Cor.13:5
In that sense God is not a good historian.
It’s fallen history anyways.
Liars have written it with selfish motives hoping to be seen as
heroes by the future generations.
Some people have a strong conviction about not forgetting.
They defend their view by saying that it would be morally disgraceful
to the victims. In hope of preventing the evil from being repeated
they swear not to forget.
Keeping in mind everybody’s faults and failures
often hinders people in their worship.
An unforgiving mind will not worship.
One of the greatest promises in the Bible is in Jeremiah 31:34,
“I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.”
What a joy!
What a liberty!
