Forgiven
Bethel Music Brian Johnson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I will sing for You alone have rescued this life
Jesus, You have set me free
You alone took away all sin and disgrace
When You gave Your life to ransom me

I am forgiven at the foot of the cross
I am accepted by the power of Your love
My every stain is washed away
I am forgiven

Here I stand in the light of Your glory and grace
Where Heaven’s love and justice meet
Now I live for the One who has called me by name
Who is risen and alive in me

I'm embraced at the foot of the cross
By the love and the mercies You have lavished on us




My every stain is washed away
I am forgiven

En el Nombre de Dios PADRE y del Espíritu Santo sanidad cae ahora como lluvia sobre los terrenales.
Dios PADRE y el Espíritu Santo nos ama, nos sana, nos salva para vivir eternamente en cuerpo y espíritu. PADRE mos multiplica los alimentos nos deja vivir gratuitamente en la tierra..
1 Solo Dios y Espíritu santo que se llama PADRE
1 Solo PADRE Celestial y terrenal
1 solo Salvador porque PADRE murió por nosotros
1 solo redentor porque PADRE nos atrajo a su resurrección y nos creó con su Santa Carne, Sangre y Espíritu Santo.
1 sola familia porque todos los terrenales somos hijas e hijos de Dios PADRE de carne de sangre y de Espíritu Por lo tanto somos hermanos /as.

EL que llevó la cruz es nuestro Dios Padre que murió en la cruz para salvarnos a cada uno de nosotros.
Es Dios Padre que resucitó de entre los muertos y estuvo 40 días más en la tierra, enseñando sus Santas Leyes para que entremos a su Reino aquí en la tierra dejó consumada su salvación, y que ya no va ha regresar porque dejó terminada su obra. Y el de cuerpo, mente y espíritu, limpio podrá ver a Dios Padre y sentir al Espíritu Santo. Pero nadie creyó,
El gobierno o Reino de Dios PADRE
Leyes: Amar y servir a Dios Padre y al Espíritu Santo con toda nuestra mente cuerpo y espíritu.
Amarse los unos a los otros como hermanos de carne de sangre y de espíritu.
Los 7 días a la semana Dios PADRE los santifico. En el Cielo si cumplen las Leyes del Reino de Dios Padre. Quien cumple las Leyes de Dios PADRE en la tierra?
La Santa Cena de la nueva alianza Comer la carne y sangre de Dios Padre, representado por el pan y el vino.por la crucifixión y por la resurrección de Dios PADRE: Dios Padre nos atrajo a su crucifixión, y nos atrajo en su resurrección y nos creó con su carne, sangre y Espíritu convirtiéndonos en sus hijas e hijos.
El Santo Juicio del Arrepentimiento de pecados para el perdón de pecados. 70 veces 7 al dia se debe perdonar al que se arrepiente verdaderamente.
La tierra es de Dios PADRE y el Espíritu Santo, y ÉL nos deja vivir gratuitamente.
El Padre Nuestro…. Vivir gratuitamente en la tierra.
Convertir nuestro cuerpo en santidad, porque es el templo de Dios PADRE y del Espíritu Santo.
Sanar toda enfermedad y toda dolencias,, resucitar a los que duermen en la muerte, creer, obedecer, y enseñar las Leyes de Dios Padre y del Espíritu Santo.

Gracias Dios Padre y Espíritu Santo por, cuidarnos, escucharnos, por salvarnos de todo mal, de espíritus de muerte, de enfermedades, de accidentes, de maldiciones de maldades, de todo disfraz de muerte.,
Te amamos a ti Dios PADRE y Espíritu Santo, porque eres nuestro único Dios, Padre, Madre, salvador, redentor, creador, legislador, Rey.
Profetas hasta Juan el bautista, este fue el último profeta en la tierra. Porque Dios Padre ya vino a la tierra a cumplir su promesa de salvación. , */*/

When you sin and you got shy and thought that God won't be able to forgive you, you are minimizing the forgiving power of God. His forgiveness is unlimited. He is always willing to forgive you. All He just wanted for you to do is to humble yourself before Him.

@jakemorrissette339

He already did forgive you at the cross 2 Cor 5:19-21

@wondertshibanda1160

... and today this song is still the same ❤️. When you sing the truth of the gospel, the song will remain even after 10 years.

For one to comprehend the meaning of this song, one need to have a revelation knowledge of who is Jesus. Without that ,this will be another song of Jesus.
