How do we know God's willingness to forgive is true?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible assures us of God's willingness to forgive through the resurrection message delivered to Mary, emphasizing grace extended to all, including Peter.

The promise of God’s forgiveness is vividly illustrated in Mark 16:7, where the angel instructs Mary Magdalene to remind the disciples, particularly Peter, that Jesus goes before them. This personal mention of Peter, who had publicly denied Christ, showcases God's abundant mercy and readiness to restore those who repent. Such divine grace transcends human expectations; while we may struggle to forgive others, God’s willingness to forgive is infinite, a truth grounded in His character as a merciful and loving Savior. Therefore, we can trust unequivocally in God's promise to forgive and restore, encouraging us to extend the same grace to others.
