Forgiveness, Why?

Forgiveness, Why?

The world is in a terrible place, The End Days and all. Prophetic events are all around us, Daniel, Isaiah, Ezekiel….I have been listening to someone who is seeking to understand what is right and is therefore evaluating what they are hearing, seeing and then learning.
People that can do that are great examples for all people.
I wonder if the person knows about the covenant at Mt. Horeb?
By the way the Soul is the death, I understand and not the body. Oh, that is what Ezekiel 18 is taking about. It is the body that gets punished as a group, hence the curses to teach (Lev. 26).
Our children usually act as we have shown them to act, we give them the values they live their lives by therefore the values that the parents live by will usually be how the children live, once in a while someone will think that something is wrong and try to change their life. That is why punishment is said to go to the 3rd and 4th generation.
The person mentioned above chose to see and change, I have chosen to do so, there are others that change, not many, not enough.( –Personal note: I was asked “Why should I be forgiven?” While I was taken aback, I have already given much thought about the need and reasons for forgiveness. If you have no chance to escape Sheol(Numbers 16:30), then why should a person even try to be good, it could be said as “I might as well do whatever I want.” This has been played out in some movies in the U.S. If all you need to do is Confess to the L’RD, Change Your ways and sin no more, You do have a reason to change and to hope.–)Shalom,James

P.S.  I forgot to explain something. Getting your sins forgiven does not get you a positive soul. I mean to say, your’s and my job is to “Choose GOD”  that is the purpose of your soul. Either you are for GOD or you are against. Hence, when you are forgiven of your sins, the consequences of your actions are still in force and you have no positive actions for your soul. You are a Zero with a rolling deficit which builds causes repercussions in the world. You must: “Ezekiel 18:21 But if the wicked turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all My statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die.” as one place this is stated.
This is very important to understand, just receiving forgiveness is not enough, you must act righteously.
Yaakov
