How do we know God's mercy is sufficient for our sins?

Answered in 2 sources

God's mercy is evident in Scripture, where it is affirmed that despite our sins, He offers forgiveness and salvation.

The assurance of God's mercy is foundational to Reformed theology, where we recognize that all humanity falls short of God's glory and is in dire need of His grace. In Isaiah 64, the prophet acknowledges the sinfulness of humanity, stating, 'all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags.' Despite this grim reality, he also proclaims, 'in those is continuance, and we shall be saved.' This reflects the covenantal promise of salvation not based on our merit but on God's mercy and love. Believers find solace in knowing that even in their unworthiness, God’s mercy prevails, granting them forgiveness and restoration through faith in Christ.
