Forget the Former: A Glimpse into Redemptive Reality by Leigh M. Allison is a captivating story about a woman's spiritual transformation and personal renewal through Christ. For years, she has been tormented by her fears and has hurt others along the way. Her life reaches a turning point when she acknowledges her wrongs and decides to change for the better. The moment she resolves to right her wrongs, she enters a heavenly court where the man she condemned and rejected for years, Lightman, becomes her defender. Her accuser, the deceiver, seeks to defame and embarrass her. However, Lightman shows her through a vision that he has already taken her punishment, giving her the courage to stand confidently before the kind and loving judge, knowing she has been cleansed and renewed.
Forget the Former is a unique story that illustrates God’s divine grace and mercy upon us. It is rich in symbolism and depicts the spiritual battle between darkness and light that occurs when a person confesses their sins, seeks forgiveness, and chooses to follow Jesus. Leigh M. Allison's narration is engaging, with poetic elements and a well-thought-out plot that will grab your attention. The narrative intertwines personal anecdotes, biblical scriptures, and spiritual insights, encouraging readers to embrace truth, forgiveness, and divine love to experience lasting change and inner peace. This book is both a testimony of Allison’s journey from mental health struggles to spiritual victory and a guide for others seeking hope and restoration through faith in Christ. I highly recommend this book to anyone who feels unworthy of forgiveness and love. Your sins have already been paid for; it is up to you to accept Jesus and follow his lead and purpose for your life.
