How do we know that God's grace can cover serious sins?

Answered in 1 source

God's grace is potent enough to cover even the gravest sins, as seen in David's story, where repentance brought forgiveness despite his actions.

The profound aspect of God's grace is exemplified in the story of David, who, despite committing adultery and murder, was later restored to fellowship with God through genuine repentance. This demonstrates that God’s grace is not only sufficient for lesser sins but also extends to the most grievous transgressions, highlighting the efficacy of Christ's atonement for sin. David’s sincere contrition, as expressed in Psalm 51, further confirms that true repentance results in restoration. Additionally, the scripture teaches that grace abounds even where sin increases, which showcases the glorious nature of God's redeeming love for His own. Thus, while one may fall grievously, the promise of restoration through Christ remains firm for all who earnestly repent.
