the great sinner who is saved as be-
ing happy. The man who is saved
from all that the four words used by
hlm implies ought to be blessed. First,
because of the forgiveness of his trans
gression. Forgive means to send
away The scapegoat taught this les
sion to Israel, for on him were laid
the transgressions to be carried away
into the land of forgetfulness. Christ.
the Lamb of God, has carried away the
sins of all that believe on Him as their
Savior. Surely the man ought to be
happy that sees in Jesus Christ the
forgiveness Of his sins. II God has
sent away your sins. then they have
from the west and He will remember
them no more.
The allusion to sin being covered
probably refers to the mercy seat"
covered the ark in which He had
placed the law. God covered Adam
and Eve. when they sinned in the
garden. with the lambskin apron as a
badge of their innocence in His sight
when through the blood of the lamb
they would be saved from their sins
Gods hatred of sin is such that he
covers it with the blood of Christ, who
is the propitiation for our sins. our
,ans cover from the lust lust penalty ,n sc, Of our
covering for the sinful soul is to put
on the righteousness Of the Lord Jesus
Christ
The psalmist's phrase. "imputes not
iniquity," has been the source of much
trouble to the theologians. Its simple
and obvious sense is that when God
forgives sinner He no longer holds
the forgiven one accountable for his
iniquity. Paul correctly, in Rom, 1868,
interprets Gods dealing with sin as
set forth by forgiven" covered" and
mot imputed" to be the equivalent to
the imputation of righteousness. The
forgiven man is the justified man. upon
whom penal sanctions have no claim.
Unless there is reality in mans
faith and repentance he will miss the
joys of forgiveness. Only by the Holy
Spirit working in us the regeneration
of Gods grace can we be free from
guile. Not until we have received the
new life from above can we come into
the fullness of the blessedness of for
gveness of sins through the unmerited
favor of God. Having praised God for
the JOY that He had given him, the
psalmist outlines the seven steps of his
spiritual restoration.
