What does the Bible say about forgiveness for believers?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible assures believers that their sins are forgiven for Christ's sake.

In 1 John 2:12, the apostle John writes to believers, reminding them that their sins are forgiven for His name’s sake. This assurance of forgiveness is based solely on Christ's atoning sacrifice and righteousness, not upon the believer's merit or actions. Young believers often struggle with doubts about their faith and fears concerning their sinfulness, but the gospel promises that their sins are wiped away because of Jesus' work on the cross. Therefore, believers can find comfort in knowing that their slates are clean before God.
