A group of Christian missionaries met in Delhi, India, with representatives of other religions to discuss their beliefs. In the course of their talks a member of a major non-Christian religion said to a missionary,
“Tell me one thing your religion can offer the Indians that mine can’t.”
The missionary thought for a moment and replied, “Forgiveness! Forgiveness!”
Ephesians 1:7 says, “Because of the sacrifice of the Messiah, his blood poured out on the altar of the Cross, we're a free people - free of penalties and punishments chalked up by all our misdeeds. And not just barely free, either. Abundantly free!” (The Message) Horace Bushnell summed it wonderfully, “Forgiveness is man’s deepest need and God’s highest achievement.”
THINK BIG Only God through Jesus can offer forgiveness so freely.
It is out of His abundance grace, not by human effort.
START SMALL. Repent. Ask Jesus for forgiveness.
Start living a forgiven-life not a despair-life.
GO DEEP. There are one thing that other religion can’t offer – forgiveness!
God can, just look at the Cross.

Thank you sir :) Thank you Jesus for your sacrifice and total forgiveness. No other can offer such costly, freely.
