Sins Remembered No More Hebrews 10:17

The writer of Hebrews shared how God said He would “put” His “laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them”. In chapter ten and verse seventeen of Hebrews the writer shares how our “sins and iniquities” God will “remember no more” where we read:

And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.

The verse begins, “And their sins and iniquities...”. The writer began with the words, “And their sins” or “their offenses, missing of the marks, errors and mistakes” “and iniquities” which means “unrighteousness and transgressions of the law”. The writer noted the “offenses and errors” as well as the “transgressions” of the people for whom Jesus sacrificed Himself

The verse continues, “...will I remember no more”. The writer added the words, “will I remember” or “God would recall to mind, remind, be mindful of and recollect” “no more” which means “never, certainly not, not at all and by no means further, yet, besides and longer”. The promise from God was that He would “not recollect and be mindful” of the people's “sins and iniquities”.

When we meditate upon these words in Hebrews, we see the awesome forgiveness and grace of God Almighty. No only is He willing to “cleanse and purge” us from our sins, but He promises to “remember” them “no more”. Jesus Christ came to remove our sins from us, and those who are wise will understand that He is willing to forget all our “iniquities and sins”.

Next time the writer shares how “there is no more offering for sin”, so read ahead, and we shall join together then.

Until tomorrow…there is more…
