How does one attain forgiveness according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

Forgiveness is attained through confessing sins and placing faith in Jesus Christ.

The path to forgiveness is made clear in scripture, particularly in passages like Psalm 51:17, which states that God does not despise a broken and contrite heart. To attain forgiveness, individuals must honestly confess their sins to God, acknowledging their need for His mercy. Furthermore, in Romans 10:9, Paul writes that if one confesses with their mouth that Jesus is Lord and believes in their heart that God raised Him from the dead, they will be saved. Thus, forgiveness is not earned but received through sincere faith in Christ’s redemptive work.
