And if he<br>trespass against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a<br>day turn again to thee, saying, I repent; thou shalt forgive<br>him. &#8221; Luke 17:3-4<\/em><br>I have accepted some rigid truths. Men are all sinners!<br>Only Jesus Christ is righteous and without sin! Repentance is<br>to turn from sin and self to God, for His grace and mercy.<br>Forgiveness is the act of putting away the sin from the<br>offender. We know that all sin is ultimately against God. He<br>alone can truly forgive sin. However, does that exempt men<br>from getting right with others?<br>Forgiveness of sin is a big part of salvation. Most people<br>never ask God for forgiveness. Does God just forgive all men<br>of sin, or just those that come to Him seeking forgiveness by<br>faith and trusting Him? With that being said, how many<br>people want forgiveness without the confession of sin? Many<br>will say it is the responsibility of every Christian to forgive as<br>Christ has forgiven. Does one have to admit their sin, confess<br>it, and seek His grace to be forgiven? Some might respond, &#8220;I<br>got it right with God and that is all that matters.&#8221; Where is the<br>responsibility of making things right with the offended<br>person? Our Lord honored Zacchaeus because he got right<br>with God and those he had wronged (see Luke 19:1-10).<br>Forgiveness of sin is conditional with God. Yet those that<br>call upon men to repent and seek forgiveness of sin are often<br>called haters, unreasonable or un-Christian.
