His forgiveness is complete

"If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:8, 9


He does not treat us according to our sins:

"The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love. He will not always accuse, nor will He harbor His anger forever; He does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities. For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is His love for those who fear Him; as far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us. As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear Him." Psalm 103:8-14


Once our sins are forgiven, they are gone forevermore:

"For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more." Jeremiah 31:34b

God commands that you forgive others.

Forgive in the same measure you have been forgiven:

"Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." Ephesians 4:32

Love your enemies:

"Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you..." Matthew 5:44

Do not seek revenge--instead, live in peace

"Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. If is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone." Romans 12:17, 18
