Tomorrow is Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement). This is the day that Jewish people confess the sins of the previous year and they pray that their names will be written in the Book of the Righteous.
The list of sins that they read out loud seems to cover everything, and that is just the problem. They believe that their confession will cover their sins. When I died on the tree, I shed My blood as an atonement for the sins of the whole world. I made it possible for everyone who believes in Me to have their sins, transgressions, and iniquities removed.
As far as the east is from the west so far have I removed your transgressions from you. I still want you to confess (admit) your sins to Me. I still want you to turn away from your sin (repent). When you do this, I drop your sins in the sea of My Forgetfulness. Do not go fishing for them again.
PSALM 103:12; 1 JOHN 1:9-5-10
