The Basis of True Forgiveness is the Cross of Jesus Christ

 “whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.”

‭‭John‬ ‭20:23‬ ‭KJV

Jesus after His resurrection showed Himself to the frightened disciples hiding in a room together and spoke peace to them saying that if they forgive someone’s sins, they are gone and forgotten and if they don’t let go, then they are stuck with them.  The basis of true forgiveness is the death and closure that Jesus brought on the Cross, to whatever it was that testified against us.  His glorious resurrection and the companionship of the Holy Spirit as the very breath of our zoe-life, are the essence and authority of our commission which is to announce mankind’s redeemed innocence!  The Holy Spirit seals and confirms our joint-resurrection with Jesus to be celebrated and endorsed by us!  Glory to God!
