Part I · Double-edged Sword
Our memory serves as a double‑edged sword. It can work for us, but it can also work against us!
It can work for us
“And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.”
The statement that God will remember sins no more means that He will no longer call them back to memory with a view to condemning the sinner.
It can work against us
There is the other side of our memory that can prove to be fatal: it’s called Spiritual Amnesia.
How can I so easily forget how great God is? It becomes clear when looking all the way back to Adam and Eve’s lack of trust, to the Israelites wandering in the desert, to Peter’s denial and fear.
From Part I, NeverForget_01.
Part II · Spiritual Amnesia
There is a high cost to a fading memory.
That’s why we sin. We forget the wickedness of our sin and what it cost our Savior to redeem us from it.
That’s why we hesitate to forgive. We forget that God in Christ has forgiven us.
That’s why we get depressed, lose hope, become joyless and settle into spiritual mediocrity. We forget Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, has conquered every one of our enemies and given us a sure future in heaven.

Part IV · Fringes of Blue
A reminder of who they were, and whose they were!
“And it shall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of the LORD, and do them.”
“The tassels were small things, yet they carried a big message: Israel belonged to God and must respect and obey His commandments.”
From Part IV, NeverForget_04.
“Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.”
Part V · Don’t Forget the Bread
“Don’t you remember anything at all?”
From Mark 8:14–21, NLT
More than a natural substance of bread, we must see the eternal bread of life, which is the Word of God.
“Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.”
“I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.”
From Part V, NeverForget_05, which quotes Mark 8 (NLT), Matthew 4:4 and Psalms 119 (NIV).
