No sin is hidden
Hope remains....
Through the shedding of christ’s blood.... We were granted forbearance & grace, which provides us the opportunity to turn from sin & walk in truth (See class on “Grace”)
In looking at that judgment one might think that there is no hope to be Oursavedhope is in christ who was sent on this earth by god the father to die for our sins
