What does the Bible say about forgetting the past?

In Philippians 3:13-14, the Apostle Paul emphasizes the importance of forgetting what lies behind and pressing toward what is ahead. This means letting go of both our failures and past victories, as clinging to these can lead to self-reliance instead of faith in Christ. The freedom we have in Christ allows us to start each day afresh, grounded in the gospel. We must remember that our sins are forgiven and dealt with by Christ, enabling us to move forward without the burden of our past.
