Confessed and forsaken sin

He that "confesseth and forsaketh" his sin "shall have mercy." Proverbs 28:13. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ The humble and broken heart, subdued by genuine repentance, will appreciate something of the love of God and the cost of Calvary; and as a son confesses to a loving father, so will the truly penitent bring all his sins before God. And it is written, "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9.
