If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9
In this verse promise is made that if we would just be true to ourselves by acknowledging that we fall short of the glory of God, He will cleanse and free us from the bondage of sin. God wants to fulfill His promise, that is to redeem us from eternal separation from Him … but not until we have made our hearts right with Him.
