The Forgiveness of the King
BIBLE MEDITATION:
“Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.”Romans 4:7
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
There was a king who asked slaves on a ship, “Why are you in chains?”
One replied, “I don’t know. I was in a crowd when a crime was committed. I am innocent.”
He asked another who said, “I am not guilty but a victim of false witnesses.”
The king proceeded to ask each man the same question and each had a reason why he was innocent. That is, until one man responded, “I am here because I deserve to be here. I have sinned against my God and against my king. And now I am paying the penalty.”
The king stepped back and said, “What are you doing here among so many honest men? Guards, release him!”
ACTION POINT:
Not until we admit our sin are we going to know the mercy and forgiveness of the King. Bow before Him today and admit you are lost without Him.

RULES OF THE ROAD:
1)The Names and Titles of God our Father and Jesus Christ our Savior will be respected at all times.
2) Discussion is encouraged, however, respect for other people and their opinions is the rule---play nice.
3) No profanity, allusions, innuendos or just plain nastiness will be tolerated. Decency WILL prevail.
This is MY house and YOU are a guest here and differences of opinion will be tolerated as long as you conduct yourself accordingly. If "the exercise of civility is beyond your ability" or you were never taught by your parents, feel free to take your toys and go home and vent your pent-up anger elsewhere.
