Judicial Forgiveness and Familial Forgiveness

Nick Bevilacqua said this:

" There is a once and for all judicial forgiveness of our sins unto everlasting Salvation. There is also a daily familial forgiveness of sins from our Father by which fellowship is restored upon self judgment and acknowledgment of our sins before our heavenly Father, who otherwise chastises His children whom He loves.(1 Corinthians 11: 31 & 32). (Hebrews 12: 4- 11)."

1 Corinthians 11:31-32
"31 But if we judged ourselves rightly, we would not be judged. 32 But when we are judged, we are disciplined by the Lord so that we will not be condemned along with the world."

Hebrews 12:4-11
A Father’s Discipline

4 You have not yet resisted [a]to the point of shedding blood in your striving against sin;

5 and you have forgotten the exhortation which is addressed to you as sons,
“My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord, Nor faint when you are reproved by Him;

6 For those whom the Lord loves He disciplines, And He scourges every son whom He receives.”

7 It is for discipline that you endure; God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline?

8 But if you are without discipline, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate children and not sons.

9 Furthermore, we had [b]earthly fathers to discipline us, and we respected them; shall we not much rather be subject to the Father of [c]spirits, and live?

10 For they disciplined us for a short time as seemed best to them, but He disciplines us for our good, so that we may share His holiness.

11 All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness."
