Have you ever wondered if another person has genuinely forgiven you? A question lingers in our hearts, causing uncertainty and doubt. But here’s the beautiful truth: when we confess our sins to God, He is faithful to forgive us. His forgiveness knows no bounds or limitations. We may never know if someone else will forgive us because people are only human with complex emotions and experiences. However, communication plays a vital role in seeking forgiveness from others. The offender must humbly admit their wrongs and ask for forgiveness sincerely, while it is equally essential for the victim to open their heart and accept the apology offered.

It Says In Matthew 6:15 ~ The Necessity Of Forgiveness… “But If You Do Not Forgive Others Their Sins, Your Father Will Not Forgive Your Sins.” These Words Echo With Profound Truth; They Remind Us That Harboring Resentment Or Refusing To Release Others From Their Wrongdoings Can Hinder Our Pardon From God!

Words alone cannot express true remorse; it is through actions that genuine repentance manifests itself. So when we find ourselves in a position where we have hurt someone deeply, all we can do is seek forgiveness in humility and sincerity, hoping against hope that it will be granted to us.  ~ Bill Greguska

1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.

Learn How You Can Be A Forgiven Christian: 

  1. Admit you are a sinner in need of God’s grace.
  2. Believe that Jesus Christ died for you and all your past, present, and future sins.
  3. Confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is your Lord and Savior.
  4. Do as the Bible teaches to your best ability, and practice your faith in everyday life.
Christians are human, and we do sin. Christians are not sinless, but since they have committed our lives to God, we are prone to sin less. 
Yet sometimes, people possess hardened hearts; they choose not to offer absolution despite our sincerest pleas for reconciliation. In these moments of disappointment and despair, remember this: If we try to ask for forgiveness for our part in a situation, and the other person refuses to forgive us, the only real forgiveness is from God since you have taken it to God in prayer and have asked for forgiveness. Keep in mind that the devil will want you to have you think that you are not forgiven when you ask God for forgiveness. Do not allow your feelings to interfere with the knowledge and fact that when God has forgiven you, you are forgiven without a doubt in your mind or heart. ~ Bill Greguska
