- Well, a l l your s i n (not sins) i s forgiven, past, present
- and future. Remember, when Christ paid for them on the Cross, all your
- sins were future. When you are saved, you are born again, to be one of Gods

- God's 'contract' is only dependent on Him. Compare Gen Gen 15:1-21 with
- Jer 34:18. We are saved by grace alone.
