Jesus had much to say about forgiveness. In the practical, everyday spiritual warfare we all experience we are wise to know the Jesus’ words. His words give us unshakable confidence that Satan and his demons can have no part of us when we stay anchored to Him.
I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. Luke 5:32
I tell you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents. Luke 15:10
Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive sins of any, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained. John 20:23
Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against then Spirit will not be forgiven. Matthew 12:31
I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance. Luke 15:7
Why do you question thus in your hearts? Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, 'Your sins are forgiven', or to say 'Rise, take up your pallet and walk'? Mark 2:8-9
Father, forgive them; for they don't know what they do. Luke 23:34
Truly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemes they utter: but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin. Mark 3:28-29
Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer and on the third day rise from the dead, and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem. Luke 24:46-47
For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father also will forgive you; but if you do not forgive men their trespasses neither will your father forgive your trespasses. Matthew 6:14-15
