Listen from:
“As far as the east is from the west, so far hath He removed our transgressions from us” (Psalm 103:1212As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us. (Psalm 103:12)).
How far is the east from the west? The sun was 95,000,000 miles away when it arose in the east, and still 95,000,000 miles away when it set in the west, but east and west are still farther off than that. Beyond the sun are other stars stretching far away into space, but east and west are farther away than that.
No one can measure it, and yet on the authority of God’s own Word believers in Christ can say, “As far as the east is from the west, so far hath He removed our transgressions from us.”
