Is a believer's forgiveness only up to a certain point, or does it last forever?
A believer's forgiveness is not limited to a certain point in time; it is now and forever. In Colossians 2, Paul writes that God has forgiven every last trespass—past, present, and future—because Christ died for all the world's sins and tasted death for every man.
Les explains that the believer’s forgiveness does not stop at a certain point in time; it means now and forever you’re forgiven. He carries the thought to Colossians 2, where Paul writes that those dead in sins have been made alive together with Christ, having forgiven every last trespass—past, present, and future. Les stresses that when Christ died, He died for all the world’s sins and tasted death for every man, so those sins are already forgiven.
