God Pardon’s Sin
Law of Nature Question: What is a Pardon?
Answer: “A pardon is the use of executive power that exempts the individual to whom it was given from punishment…”

“These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.” Revelation 17:14.
As you can see, under the laws of nature, humanity is guilty of a governing criminal system by the King of Kings. This action requires, under nature’s direction, only two plausible legal options under a constituted statute of natural law.
Number One: The crimes of humanity must get sentenced with just punishment by the King of Kings.
Number Two: The King of Kings also has the sovereign authority to pardon such criminals.
Note: This is not a right but a privilege.
Countries around the world have some form of pardon rights. For example, The President of the United States is given this authority under the Article II of the United States Constitution, “…he shall have power to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States,…” Another example would be the British Monarch. The current king, as this is written, is King Charles III. Under England’s constitutional monarchy system, this power gets bestowed on the British Crown. As mentioned throughout this article, we are soldiers for Jesus Christ once we become genuinely Saved (big S).
Note: Dear Reader, this is not a little s = non-real salvation but genuinely Saved by God’s Grace.
At this moment, we are adopted into God’s family and reunited with God since the fall of Adam and Eve. Thereby as soldiers for God while still walking on this earth, we have commanders (leaders) we must follow.
“And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;” 1 Thessalonians 5:12.
“Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him: Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him. For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God. Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:8-11.
Like all governing nations, soldiers have their ranking system of authority.
For example, the United States Army ranking system for the enlisted is as follows,
Army Ranks: Junior Enlisted (E-1 to E-3) Private 2nd Class (E-2) …
Private First Class (E-3) …
Army Specialist (E-4) …
Corporal (E-4) …
Sergeant (E-5) …
Staff Sergeant (E-6) …
Sergeant First Class (Platoon Sergeant) (E-7) … Master Sergeant (E-8)
As evident, the United States Army ranking system goes even higher with officers, etc. This illustration’s purpose is to showcase that Christian Soldiers need to understand that this fallen world of sin is at war with the Godhead of the Trinity. Your Commander & Chief (American terminology: Example: U.S. President) is Jesus Christ. You could use language that is more aligned with biblical writings. Your King is Jesus Christ. Like in the United Kingdom, Charles III is the King of England. However, the Sovereign Creator of “ALL CREATION” is the King we worship.
Thankfully we have a merciful Creator. Although we are criminals under His legal statute, God offers an executive “privilege.” This privilege is a divine pardon from sin (sin = under (n) lowercase n meaning: corrupted natural law = fallen world. Once this absolution gets granted, the Saved are now getting reconciled with God with a clemency (pardon) which = the big wording N; thereby, we are reentering the original Natural Law, which is” perfection through Christ.
“And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven. As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.” 1 Corinthians 15:45 – 15:49.
Do you see, dear reader? When an individual gets Saved (Big S = Genuine Salvation), they are spiritually born again. The first Adam (perfect before sin corrupting ‘natural law’), now corrupted, needed redemption. The Bible talks about Jesus, as mentioned above in 1 Corinthians 15:45-49 as a second Adam. What is the symbolic meaning? Easy Answer.
Answer: First Adam (sinned, thereby “Big N = Natural Law now corrupted.) Humanity is now temporarily conquered by Satan (Starting Point: Garden of Eden). Laws of ‘Nature’ (big N) now become a little n = the devil’s dominion. Man has a “CHOICE” granted by Free Will (repentance definition: change of mind) to choose Lucifer (god of this
world) “OR” to remove themselves from his control. Turn from being a “SINNER” and thereby accept the second Adam (Jesus Christ), reentering the big N (Natural) law that the Creator attended from the beginning.
You see, without “FREE WILL,” we can “NOT” repent. Repentance is not a work-based salvation message. In the garden of Eden, Adam & Eve entered into “SIN” their eyes were open to good and “EVIL.”
“And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.” Genesis 2:15 – 2:17.
Once the eyes of humanity ‘got opened’ to the knowledge of good & …. Evil, humankind had to make a choice individually (Each person).
Biblical Dictionary Meaning
Repentance’ Reference Link: https://www.biblestudytools.com/dictionary/repentance/
“…To repent and to convert involved obedience to God’s revealed will, placing trust in him, turning away from all evil and ungodliness…”
Thereby this is the smoking gun proof one needs to understand and debunk those who claim “Repenting” is not required for genuine Salvation. If the Holy Scriptures proclaim our eyes are opened to the knowledge of good and evil, we must willfully change our minds and turn away from corruption (sin/evil).
Something to Consider …
“…A pardon is one form of the clemency power of the president, the others being commutation of sentence, remission of fine or restitution, and reprieve. A person may decide not to accept a pardon, in which case it does not take effect, according to a Supreme Court majority opinion in Burdick v. United States…”

So … Under God’s legal Kingship, He grants the pardon power to those “who accept,” not “reject.” Accepting God’s executive pardon from a legal terminology & theological position, one must accept guilt (free will & change their mind) by accepting Jesus Christ, who paid for the sins at Calvary.
“For thy name’s sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.” Psalms 25:11.
As we can see, a pardon from God is 100% needed to get reconciled with the Sovereign of Natural Law (God & His Dominion, aka, Kingdom). The difference between our Creator’s pardon and a pardon from a governmental institution of this world (USA, UK, Germany, etc.) is this pardon is eternal, and this clemency removes the sins that get recorded under the penal code of God’s Thrown. This amnesty (pardon) thereby grants a Christian the right to reunification with our Almighty Creator.
God’s Penal Code Recorded: Jesus Christ (Pardon’s Sins):
– – Kings of Kings (Rev 17:14) – – >
REMEMBER
“And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.” Revelation 20:15.
“But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house.” Matthew 9:6.
Do not forget that to receive this eternal pardon from the penal code of (sin) against God’s Kingdom,
humankind must accept God’s pardon out of a free will choice (change of mind) and seek His pardon.
“Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.” Revelation 3:20.
Jesus Christ in His Sovereign Kingdom (Authority) granted under perfected Natural Law (Big N = Big J for the Messiah Jesus) is willing to sign the application for this pardon for anyone who desires if they accept guilt and repent (Repent: change their mind) believe that His signature (which by the way gets signed in the Blood of Jesus, 1 Peter 319: “But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:”) who gives the official stamp to receive this legally decreed constituted by the throne of God removal of justified punishment (eternal damnation ‘HELL’) and is thereby declared right with God to enter the Holy Kingdom of God. “And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.” Hebrews 9:22.
REMEMBER Without the pardon of Jesus Christ, you can not enter the streets of gold.
“And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass.” Revelation 21:21.
You can not enter God’s Kingdom. The sentence under God’s Natural Law must enforce the full wrath of eternal damnation (“HELL”). This judgment is an eternal life sentence of burning pain without the right of appeal or parole. As a result, you shall get given the ‘eternal death’ sentence of misery. Under Natural Law, a man got given an eternal spirit. This spirit of rebellion will receive an eternal death sentence. Still, since the spirit lives on eternally, the soul of man shall never cease to stop but stay in a judgment state of burning pain, which get’s decreed under God’s legal penal code, the second death.
“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” Revelation 21:8.
Or …
Dear reader, I urge with you, that you seek the royal Pardon from Jesus Christ before the trial begins (eternal judgment). Remember: Once the trial starts, the pardon is off the table. “If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” John 8:36.
