Bible Verses About Forgiveness And Grace
Forgiveness Through Christ
When we reflect on forgiveness through Christ, it’s essential to understand that it is about relinquishing our own burdens and embracing the grace offered to us. This forgiveness is not something we earn; it is a gift from God. The sacrifice of Jesus on the cross serves as the ultimate demonstration of God’s love and grace.
