“God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labor of love that you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister.” – (Hebrews 6:10)
If God called it “unrighteous” to forget that which is good and right in order to bless it, it stands to reason that it is also “unrighteous” to forget that which is evil in order to judge it. Today is Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day. People all over the world actively work to make sure this catastrophe is not forgotten or repeated because society is forgetful - but God is not.
We must not assume that because the Holocaust was over 75 years ago, that the perpetrators avoided justice. Justice delayed is NOT justice denied with God. It's coming – and He’ll resurrect the dead, both victim and villain, to do it… “The hour is coming, in which all that are in the graves shall hear His voice and shall come forth: they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.” – (John 5:26-29).
Almost 2000 years ago, Jesus paid for the sins of all mankind on the Cross and promised that whoever will come to Him in repentance and faith, “I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more” (Hebrews 8:12).
To remember something is to actively pull it forward. God will never pull forward the sins of those who confessed them and put them under the blood of Christ… “As far as the East is from the West, so far has He removed our transgressions from us” (Psalm 103:12). But by His own mouth He declares to those who refuse His offer of pardon at the Cross… “I will by no means clear the guilty” (Exodus 34:7).
Justice is coming. His resurrection guarantees it.
