I understand what you are saying...but there is no time in the bible where God mentions humans to forget....he KNOWS that as mortal beings it is IMPOSSIBLE. I always look for scripture to back up what I believe and as far as I can see there is no mention in the bible where God says of humans to forget. The same way the bible states that we are to love our neighbour as our selves...It does not state that we should love them better than ourselves...Sometimes we can read something into scripture that is not really there.
It is impossible on our own, but with His Way all things are possible; this is what is taught. And yes, we can sometimes read what is not written, but some also cut out what is actually not directly stated. Just because it's not mentioned, "forget what they did", does not mean the Father is against you doing so, nor does it mean you should keep these things in mind. Remember what He said about: with what measurement you mete out, it will be measured to you. If you remember their sins, so shall yours be remembered and if yours are remembered and not forgotten, then one can perceive they are before His very face to be judged. And His salvation is so that our sins may be forgotten, not remembered.
