How do we know that divine forgiveness is true?

Answered in 2 sources

Divine forgiveness is confirmed through the cross of Christ, where God's love and justice meet, providing a foundation for our belief in forgiveness.

The truth of divine forgiveness is rooted in the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ. The cross acts as a powerful symbol of God's willingness to forgive sins that humanity commits against Him. This is illustrated in the message of the Gospel, where grace reigns, and through Christ's atoning work, sinners find shelter in God's mercy. Divinely motivated, God forgives without any human merit, as seen in the relationship formed by the atoning blood of Christ, which makes forgiveness available to all who believe. As Romans 5:8 states, God demonstrates His love towards us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us, providing assurance of His forgiving nature.
