If God forgives sin then what does it matter ........ this "taking away" bit?
The fact is He FORGIVES!!!!!
His forgiveness is total and complete to the point that He promised restoration and even renewal even in the Old Testament!
His response to true repentance is direct and immediate. He forgives!! And I don't believe He held that over their heads then ..... neither does he now. That should make you want to shout and run Bro. E. Hehe.
