If We Confess Our Sins

"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:9). God promises to forgive our sins and cleanse us. God forgives us according to His word of promise. Confess your sins to God and be forgiven and cleansed from all sin.

God forgives all who agree that they have sinned (1 John 1:8-10). However, we never need to beg God to forgive us. Our faith is based upon the faithfulness of God to forgive us. He has clearly promised to forgive and cleanse us.

God forgives all who believe His written word. All the covenant promises of the Bible are made by the sworn oath of God to His people. The New Covenant (Testament) of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ provides a sacrifice at the cross which removes all of our sins (1 John 1:7).

God has sworn with a covenant promise to forgive you. "For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more" (Hebrews 8:12). God forgives sinners. It's based upon God's covenant oath.

God is faithful to forgive you. He is sure to forgive and cleanse you from all sin. As a believer, you can know that you are clean before God. It is based upon what Christ did for you at the cross (1 John 1:7). He took your sins away (John 1:29). God will forgive you and cleanse you from all sin. He is faithful to His covenant word to perform it.
