My Journey to Life, Step 9—God the Father

10. Who forgives our sins? God the Father, or Jesus, the Son?

Both! The Godhead works together for our redemption, which includes the forgiveness of sins for which we ask pardon. After his sins of adultery and murder, David repented and pleaded for God’s mercy. How comforting must have been this assurance: “For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is His mercy toward 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 pities his children, So the Lord pities those who fear Him” (Psalm 103:11-13). JTL9 5.1
