"God erased the handwritten charges that indicted us," Colossians 2:14.
Yes he did. What charges? The charges that listed our sin. The charges against us. The charges that the court would examine inexorably to find us guilty (because we are), worthy of judgment and of sentencing to death. But God ripped those charges right out of the judicial proceedings! He took that accusation and nailed it to the cross with Jesus! Yeah. That's what God did. Jesus' sacrifice paid the price for our redemption. Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb. And how do we know this? By faith in God's promises.
As we meet with a brother or sister today, we forgive each other for any and all wrong. And, together, we bring thanks to God for erasing our sinful guilt completely in Christ.
