“You Have Burdened Me With Your Sins”

“Yet you have not called on me, Jacob, you have not wearied yourselves for me, Israel.

You have not brought me sheep for burnt offerings, nor honored me with your sacrifices. I have not burdened you with grain offerings nor wearied you with demands for incense.

You have not bought any fragrant calamus for me, or lavished on me the fat of your sacrifices. But you have burdened me with your sins and wearied me with your offenses.

“I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions, for my own sake, and remembers your sins no more.

Review the past for me, let us argue the matter together; state the case for your innocence.

Your first father sinned; those I sent to teach you rebelled against me.

So I disgraced the dignitaries of your temple; I consigned Jacob to destruction and Israel to scorn.

Isaiah 43:22-28

When Jesus comes back, what do you believe will happen? We know God will not remember a single sin against us.

When our Lord comes back He will “bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels of the hearts.”

When God saves us, our sins are forgiven forever.
