Isaiah 1:18“Come now, let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool. Matthew 6:14For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you Ephesians 1:7-10In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, which he lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth. Acts 10:42-43“…And he commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that he is the one appointed by God to be judge of the living and the dead. To him all the prophets bear witness that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.” Psalm 86:4-5Gladden
the soul of your servant, for to you, O Lord, do I lift up my soul. For
you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all
who call upon you. _Luke 7:47-48“…Therefore
I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven—for she loved much.
But he who is forgiven little, loves little.” And he said to her, “Your
sins are forgiven.” Psalm 103:8-12The
LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast
love. He will not always chide, nor will he keep his anger forever. He
does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay us according to
our iniquities. For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great
is his steadfast love toward those who fear him; as far as the east is
from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us. Matthew 5:22-24But
I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable
to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council;
and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to the hell of fire. So if
you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your
brother has something against you, leave your gift there before the
altar and go. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and
offer your gift. Luke 23:43“…Therefore
I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven—for she loved much.
But he who is forgiven little, loves little.” And he said to her, “Your
sins are forgiven.” 2 Corinthians 5:18-19All
this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave
us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ God was
reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against
them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation.Colossians 1:13-14He
has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the
kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness
of sins. Matthew 6:14For
if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also
forgive you 1 Corinthians 13:4-7Love
is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or
rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or
resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the
truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things,
endures all things. 2 Corinthians 2:5-8Now
if anyone has caused pain, he has caused it not to me, but in some
measure—not to put it too severely—to all of you. For such a one, this
punishment by the majority is enough, so you should rather turn to
forgive and comfort him, or he may be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow.
So I beg you to reaffirm your love for him. Galatians 6:1-2Brothers,
if anyone is caught in any transgression, you who are spiritual should
restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Keep watch on yourself, lest you
too be tempted. Ephesians 4:31-32Let
all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away
from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted,
forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.
