How do we know that Christ forgives our sins?

Answered in 4 sources

Christ forgives our sins as a result of true faith, demonstrated in Luke 7:50 where He tells the woman her faith has saved her.

We can be assured that Christ forgives our sins through the testimony of Scripture and the personal assurance of the Holy Spirit. In Luke 7:50, Jesus proclaims to the woman, 'Thy faith hath saved thee.' This illustrates that the assurance of forgiveness is linked to faith in Christ. The nature of faith is pivotal; true faith believes that God will fulfill His promises. As seen in the context of this passage, repentance and recognizing one's sinful state while approaching Christ lead to the assurance of forgiveness. Through Christ's sacrificial death and resurrection, He offers peace and forgiveness to all who genuinely come to Him.
