Christians Must Heed
Jesus

The fact that God accepts
repentance and forgives sinners
is also revealed in the Gospel. It is of
the greatest importance for our
Christian brothers to consider these true
and accurate statements in the Gospel:

... In Whom we have the forgiveness of sins,
according to the riches of His grace. (Ephesians,
1:7-8)
When they heard this, they had no further objections
and praised God, saying, "So then, God has grant-
ed even the Gentiles repentance unto life." (Acts,
11:18)
For He [God] has rescued us from the dominion of dark-
ness... we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
(Colossians, 1:13-14)
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will
forgive us our sins and purify us from all unright-
eousness. (1 John, 1:9)
And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person
well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he
will be forgiven. (James, 5:15)
Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our
debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us
from the evil one. For if you forgive men when they sin
against you, God will also forgive you. But if you do not
forgive men their sins, your Lord will not forgive
your sins. (Matthew, 6:12-15)
