"For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more."
Under the Old Covenant, the priest had to offer sacrifices for the sins of the people. Under the New Covenant Jesus has offered the sacrifice of his life. The end result of the New Covenant is God's forgiveness. The forgiveness is a gift. We don't earn it with our good behavior. It doesn't matter how bad our behavior has been. The forgiveness is a gift for us to receive.

I am so thankful for God's most amazing grace - and that He remembers our sins no more! I think that is why I love the time before and after Christmas - so there is a reminder to the world of this amazing grace!
