I also asked forgiveness because I had been taught that if you don’t ask, you aren’t forgiven, since you aren’t truly repentant.

I no longer pray and ask God to forgive me.

I have a revelation of God’s love for me and His forgiveness.

I also have a revelation of the finished work of Christ on my behalf.

I’m not trying to earn my salvation.

You can call me arrogant, irreverent, or any other label you like, but I’ll just call you “traditional”, “religiously oppressed” and “deceived”.

Asking forgiveness for our sins denies the finished work of the cross, and the fact that God already forgave us before we ever sinned.

Not only did He forgive us, but He chose to forget our sins and call us righteous in Christ Jesus.

One might argue that asking forgiveness shows humbleness before God and concern about the gravity of our transgressions, but those arguments are a lie.

If you are a believer on Christ, it is not humble to ask God to forgive you, it is unbelief.

You don’t need to have concern about the gravity of your transgressions, because you ARE FORGIVEN!

Instead of asking forgiveness, just thank God for already forgiving you and keep on moving forward.
