How do we know God's grace is sufficient for forgiveness?

Answered in 5 sources

God's grace is sufficient for our forgiveness, as shown in the parable where the father forgives the wayward son without conditions (Luke 15:20).

The concept of God's grace being sufficient for our forgiveness is evident in the parable of the prodigal son. When the younger son returns home, he expresses his unworthiness, yet the father does not hesitate to welcome him back with open arms. This illustrates the abundant nature of God's grace; it is offered freely and unconditionally, without the need for prior penance or justification. In His grace, God provides a way for us to be reconciled to Him despite our failures and sins. The father's reaction shows that God's grace surpasses our understanding and human judgments. Thus, we can rest assured that no matter how far we stray, God's grace can redeem us.
