Do You Need to Forgive God?
November 11, 2024

#STRaskStand to Reason
Questions about whether we ever need to forgive God in order to heal our emotions, whether it’s unbiblical to tell someone he needs to forgive himself, why poor people were allowed to offer a flour sacrifice without blood, and whether it’s wrong to call out one another’s sins.
* Is it true that sometimes we need to forgive God in order to heal our emotions?
* Is it unbiblical advice to tell someone he needs to forgive himself?
* If there is no forgiveness without the shedding of blood, why were poor people allowed to offer flour as a sin offering in Leviticus 5?
* What would you say to a pastor who said we should let the Holy Spirit change people and not call out one another’s sins?
