How do we know that God continues to forgive sin?

Answered in 1 source

God continues to forgive sins because of His nature and the foundational work of Christ's sacrifice.

The continuity of God's forgiveness is rooted in His eternal nature and the completed work of Christ. In Numbers 14, Moses urges God to show mercy, highlighting God's long-suffering and forgiveness as intrinsic to who He is. This divine forgiveness is echoed in the New Testament, where the Apostle Paul emphasizes justification through faith in Christ, asserting that God's justice requires our salvation because of Christ's righteousness applied to our account. Thus, forgiveness is secured for the elect through Christ's sacrificial death, ensuring that believers can rest in perpetual forgiveness.
