He forgave the sin as if it were removed but for purposes of judgment the sin hasn't been removedSounds remarkably schizophrenic for someone calling Himself God.
No thanks, I'll stick with the correct, Catholic understanding of True Forgiveness of sins.

Our Archbishop
James Keleher^ did something similar to our newly elected Governor. Here is the
article^ in which he denies her the use of her Parish Church (Across from the Kansas Statehoue) for an "interfaith" service in realation to her innauguration because of her support of abortion. If I can find it, I will post an open letter from our former Archbisop Ignatius Strecker to democrat Catholics regards to abortions well.

Yes, Christianity is not simplistic nor does it necessarily follow our logic. That's why we believe it is truly from the Lord! It's not my intention to debate this to death since none of us totally understands these mysteries anyway. But there are many passages that speak to sin being forgiven but not totally forgotten. That's what I was referring to. Peace.
Rev. 20:12: "And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. "
