EXPUNGED

 

Rom 8:28-30

28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

KJV

 

          The word “expunged” is a legal term. It is a verb which means to “erase or remove completely something that is unwanted or unpleasant.” Simply put, it erases a misdeed from your record. It can’t be legally found. It is not there. It is as if it has never been there!

 

          The word “justified” is translated from the Greek dikaioo, which means “to render or regard as innocent.” It too is a legal term with glorious implications for the believer. It means that there is no record of our sin. Not only has the blood of Jesus COVERED our many sins, but they have been EXPUNGED!

 

My sins are gone (author unknown)

 

You Ask Me Why I’m Happy

So I’ll Just Tell You Why,

Because My Sins Are Gone;

And When I Meet The Scoffers

Who Ask Me Where They Are,

I Say, My Sins Are Gone.

 

They’re Underneath The Blood,

On The Cross Of Calvary,

As Far Removed As Darkness Is From Dawn;

In The Sea Of God’s Forgetfulness,

That’s Good Enough For Me,

Praise God, My Sins Are Gone.

 

Thank you, Lord, for the cleansing blood. AMEN
