How do we know that Christ will forgive our sins?

Answered in 1 source

We know Christ will forgive sins because He is the embodiment of forgiveness and fulfills the requirements of the law.

Christ's assurance of forgiveness is rooted in His divine nature and His fulfillment of the law's requirements. When Jesus healed the leper, He did so not only as an act of compassion but also in accordance with the demands of the law. After the healing, the leper was instructed to present himself to the priest, who, according to Mosaic law, would declare him clean (Leviticus 14:2-3). This demonstrates that Jesus, through His atoning sacrifice, has met all the legal requirements for our forgiveness. He embodies forgiveness itself, as stated in Exodus 34:6-7, where God reveals His nature as forgiving iniquity, transgression, and sin. Therefore, we have certainty that Christ will forgive our sins, as He is both the means and the message of our salvation.
