Jehovah - The Greates Forgiver - JEHOVAH'S UNIQUE ABILITY TO FORGIVE

 Jehovah is "the judge of all the earth." (Genesis 18:25)  A good judge needs to have a deep understanding of the law.  That certainly is true of Jehovah because in addition to being our Judge, he is our Lawgiver.  (Isaiah 33:22) No one besides Jehovah has such a deep and strong sense of right and wrong.  What else does a good judge need?  He needs to be able to consider all the revelent facts in a case before he renders judgment.  In this respect, Jehovah is uniquely qualified as judge.

Unlike human judges, Jehovah always has a perfect grasp of the facts of any case that comes before him.  (Genesis 18:21. 21; Psalm 90:8) He is not limited by what humans see or hear.  He completely understands how a person's actions  are influenced by his genetic makeup, upbringing, and environment as well as by his emotional and mental condition.  Jehovah also reads the heart.  He fully perceives the motivations, intentions, and desires of each person.  Nothing  can be hidden from Jehovah. (Hebrews 4:13) Thus, Jehovah's  forgiveness is always based on his complete knowledge of a situation.
