The Gospel and Love and Forgiveness

The gospel message is God's great YES over the repentant believer's whole life--past, present, and future. God is pleased with the believer because Jesus' death has taken away the condemnation he/she deserved, and it has also taken away God's anger toward him/her. The believer is his son/daughter forever. He/she is no longer a slave or an orphan.
Hence, it is time for the believer to stop acting like an orphan and to start loving others and forgiving others the way God loves and forgives him/her (Eph 4:31-5:2).
