You cover your sins, and they will have ar resurrection some- lime; let God cover them, and neither, devil nor man can find them. There are lour expressions in Iho Bible with regard to where God puts sins. He puts thein '\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDbehind His back.'' * If God has forgiven me, who will bring a charge against mev '\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD 1Jo has blotted them out, as a thick cloud.\" You see a cloud tonight and tomorrow there isn't a cloud to be seen. ''He casts them into the depths of the sea.\" Some one has said, \"Thank God that it is a sea and not ,a river; a river might dry up, but the sea cannot.\" Tlie greatest blessing that ever comes to me this side of heaven is when God forgives me.
