I) Feeling Forgiven
A) FEELINGS ALONE are not LEGITIMATE forms of Biblical TEACHINGS of forgiveness.
Neither is this this true of salvation (1 Jn 5:13).
B) While the Bible reveals there is a feeling of joy associated with forgiveness and
salvation, (Psa 51:12), feelings alone do not guarantee or legitimize forgiveness
of sins.
One isn’t saved or forgiven just because they feel so.
II) Why I May Not Feel Forgiven….?
A) Maybe BECAUSE I HAVEN’T BEEN! (Acts 19:1-7).
1) Peter said one must repent & be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ (Acts 4:12) for the
remission of sins.
(Acts 2:38).
2) The Greek word, eis (εἰς), translated “for,” in Acts 2:38, denotes “entrance into, or direction
and limit: into, to, toward.
Whereas gár (Mat 1:21; 4:17), assigns reason.
B) Maybe I LACK NECESSARY FAITH (1 John 1:9)
1) Paul’s story PROVES the DEPTH and the POWER of God’s mercy (1 Tim 1:12-16).
2) We must appreciate and pursue the LOVE and eternal purpose of God (1 John 4:7-10).
C) Maybe Because I Refuse To CONFRONT My SINS (Psalm 32:1-6).
D) Maybe I Lack GODLY REPENTANCE (2 Cor 7:8-13).
E) Maybe My DEVOTION and RELATIONSHIP to the Lord isn’t what it should be.
1) Heart-felt repentance results in a real change in one’s actions.
2) One must bear the fruits of repentance (Mat 3:7-10; Acts 26:19-20).
3) Consider 1 John 3:19-22.
Conclusion
Have I genuinely been forgiven?
If not, what am I going to do about it?
