Forgiveness stands at the center of the Christian message, both the forgiveness we receive from God and the forgiveness we extend to others. 1 John 1:9 promises that if we confess our sins, God is faithful and just to forgive us and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Because we have been forgiven so freely, we are called to forgive in the same way.
Ephesians 4:32 urges us to be kind and compassionate, forgiving one another just as in Christ God forgave us. Romans 5:8 shows the depth of that grace: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Forgiveness is not pretending a wrong did not happen; it is releasing the debt and trusting God with justice.
