More is required of the believer than merely quoting this God’s forgiveness is conditional. Ever heard that

aspect of the Lord’s prayer to have God perform this before? Perhaps not in light of the perverted slant

request to supply their daily bread on a consistent basis. which proclaims God forgives our sins past, present,

We must give consistently to be consistently given unto. and future under the cliché “Every sin I ever will

Jesus Himself said:                                           commit is already under the blood.” False doctrine!

            “GIVE, AND IT WILL BE GIVEN TO YOU;               Sins that are past are forgiven (Rom.3:25). Sins that
GOOD MEASURE, PRESSED DOWN, SHAKEN TOGETHER,                  are present are forgiven IF we confess them (1
                                                              Jn.1:7-9, 2:1-2). God does not pre-forgive future sins.

   BOSOM. FOR WITH THE MEASURE THAT YOU USE,                  Neither is God’s forgiveness of our sins
  IT WILL BE MEASURED BACK TO YOU.” Luke 6:38

The apostle Paul likewise stated the same principle:          “unconditional” as popularly taught. The reason

  “BUT THIS I SAY: HE WHO SOWS SPARINGLY WILL ALSO            Jesus taught us to pray in the Lord’s Prayer, “ And
    REAP SPARINGLY, AND HE WHO SOWS BOUNTIFULLY               forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors” (Matt.
       WILL ALSO REAP BOUNTIFULLY…GOD IS ABLE TO              6:12) is because the Scriptures state plainly that
  MAKE ALL GRACE ABOUND TOWARD YOU, THAT YOU,                 forgiveness depends upon forgiving:
     ALWAYS HAVING ALL SUFFICIENCY IN ALL THINGS,
                                                                 “FOR IF YOU FORGIVE MEN THEIR TRESPASSES, YOUR

            IS WRITTEN: ‘HE HAS DISPERSED ABROAD,
                                                                      YOU DO NOT FORGIVE MEN THEIR TRESPASSES,
          HE HAS GIVEN TO THE POOR…’ ” 2 Cor. 9:6-9                     NEITHER WILL YOUR FATHER FORGIVE YOUR
                                                                                 TRESPASSES.” Matt. 6:14-15
 The psalmist stated that he had never seen the
 righteous forsaken or begging bread (Psm. 37:25). As a               “…FORGIVING ONE ANOTHER, IF ANYONE HAS A
 pastor for over 28 years I have seen some of God’s           COMPLAINT AGAINST ANOTHER, EVEN AS CHRIST FORGAVE
 people living as if they were forsaken by God and were
 indeed begging for bread (handouts) simply because                     YOU, SO YOU ALSO MUST DO.” Col. 3:13
 they did not follow principles such as stated above. In
 the Book of Haggai the prophet warns God’s people of         Satan is “the Accuser of the brethren.” Read the story
 the reason why God does not provide for them:                in Zechariah 3:1-10! He does this before God’s

  “CONSIDER YOUR WAYS! …HE WHO EARNS WAGES, EARNS             (Rev.12:10). Usually his accusations are groundless,
WAGES TO PUT INTO A BAG WITH HOLES…YOU LOOKED FOR             false accusations. However, if you are a believer, you
                                                              better believe that your forgiveness before God’s
