How do we know that forgiveness is granted by God's grace?

Answered in 1 source

Forgiveness is granted freely by God's grace through Jesus Christ, who paid our sin debt.

The parable in Matthew 18 illustrates God's readiness to forgive and emphasizes that our ability to be forgiven is not based on our efforts but on Christ's sacrificial death. This truth is reinforced by teachings in Scripture, such as Ephesians 1:7, which highlights redemption through Christ's blood and the forgiveness of sins in accordance with God's grace. The King in the parable, who forgives the servant's vast debt, serves as a representation of God's grace, revealing that through faith in Christ, we receive forgiveness for our transgressions.
