Him We Proclaim
Dr. John Fonville
June 01, 2025
The Lord's Prayer focuses on seven major themes, all of which center on God the Father, and the fifth petition shows us that righteous prayer focuses on the forgiveness of the Father.

The forgiveness of our sins comes with the cancellation of our infinite, unpayable debt to God, and it results in a new way of life. Jesus teaches us to imitate our Father in heaven by forgiving others, and our forgiveness is not the cause of God's forgiveness, but rather the evidence of genuine saving faith. [... more]
