Forgiven, Forgotten and Sin Not Imputed

A word from God to Kate McVeigh: “When you asked me to forgive you I only had one incident to forgive you for – all others I had forgotten.” So if we think God brings something on us to teach us something because of something we did – it does not make sense – He has already forgotten it! But thinking like this way may allow Satan in to attack us with sickness and disease.

Kate McVeigh, August 2006

God will never forget you but He will forget your sins.
