Is there any sin that God will not forgive? | GotQuestions.org

Today's question is, is there any sin that God will not forgive? In this video

I'll answer that question from a biblical perspective. Then afterwards, as always, I'll share some helpful resources, so stick around until the end.

For the born -again child of God, there is no unforgivable sin. The believer's sin was forgiven at the cross, and there is no longer any condemnation for those who are in Christ.

Romans 8, verse 1, God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him.

John 3, verse 17. Throughout His ministry, Jesus bestowed the marvelous and surprising forgiveness of God.

Zacchaeus, the sinful woman in Simon's house, the paralytic in Galilee—all of them were forgiven by the

Lord. It didn't matter what they had done, God was able to forgive. Truly I tell you,

Jesus said, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering the kingdom. Matthew 21, verse 31.

Jesus' statement, from the cross it is finished, John 19, verse 30, means that the penalty for sin is paid in full.

The word translated, it is finished, is one word in the Greek, tetelestai. This is a wonderful word.

Tetelestai was stamped on receipts to mark them as paid in full, and when a convicted criminal had completed his sentence and was free from prison, a sign saying,

Tetelestai, was nailed to the door of his house as a token that he no longer owed a debt to society.

The Lord Jesus Christ became our sacrifice for sin, and the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world,

John 1, verse 29. His was the perfect sacrifice. The promise to those who believe in Christ is that every sin they've ever committed or will commit is forgiven.

The blood of Jesus purifies us from all sin, 1 John 1, verse 7.

1 Corinthians 6, verses 9–10 list a variety of scandalous sins that had at one time characterized the

Corinthian believers. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the

Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God, verse 11. Their sin was gone, removed from them, as far as the east is from the west,

Psalm 103, verse 12. It is important to understand the condition of God's forgiveness of sin.

We can come to God only through the Lord Jesus. Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life.

No one comes to the Father except through Me, John 14, verse 6.

God's forgiveness is available to all who receive Jesus, but for those who reject the Lord Jesus, there is no forgiveness or remission of sin.

God will forgive all sin in Christ. For those not in Christ, there is no forgiveness.

Whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on them, John 3, verse 36.

John wrote his first epistle to born -again believers, and he included this promise, If we confess our sins,

He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness, 1

John 1, verse 9. We all sin, but when we do, God's grace stands ready to forgive

His children and restore the fellowship. The if at the beginning of 1 John 1, verse 9 indicates a condition—if we confess.

This word in the Greek literally means, same word, and it can be defined as to say the same thing.

To confess our sin means that we agree with God about it. God's forgiveness does not give us carpe lanche to continue sinning.

We do not treat grace so lightly. Rather, a born -again believer who is walking in fellowship with God will be sensitive to sin and quick to confess it to the

Lord. One of the most wonderful truths of Scripture is that God freely forgives sin.

Because God's grace is infinite, there is no limit to the sin God is willing to forgive in Christ.

No sin is beyond the reach of God's grace. Where sin increased, grace increased all the more.

Romans 5, verse 20. The apostle Paul was a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and a violent man before his salvation.

First Timothy 1, verse 13. He called himself the chief of sinners, but after he found the grace of God, he said,

Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance. Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom

I am the worst. First Timothy 1, verse 15. If God can save Paul, He can save anyone.
