Forgiver of Sin
God
Exodus 34:6-7
6 (Ro 2:4; Ne 9:17; Ps 86:15) The Lord passed by before him,
and proclaimed, "The Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious,
slow to anger, and abounding in goodness and truth,
7 (Ex 20:5-6; Job 10:14) keeping mercy for thousands,
forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin,
but who will by no means clear the guilty,
visiting the iniquity of fathers on the children
and on the children's children,
to the third and the fourth generation."
[6] And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, The LORD, The LORD
God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and
truth,
[7] Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and
sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of
the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the
third and to the fourth generation.
Nehemiah 9:17
17 (Ps 78:11; 86:5) They refused to obey and were not mindful of Your wonders
that You performed among them. But they hardened their necks and in their
rebellion appointed a leader to return to their bondage. But You are a God
ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding
in kindness, and did not forsake them.
[17] And refused to obey, neither were mindful of thy wonders that thou
didst among them; but hardened their necks, and in their rebellion appointed
a captain to return to their bondage: but thou art a God ready to pardon,
gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and forsookest
them not.
Daniel 9:9
9 (Ps 130:4; Jer 14:7) To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgiveness,
though we have rebelled against Him.
[9] To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have
rebelled against him;
Jonah 4:2
2 He prayed to the Lord and said, "O Lord! Is this not
what I said while I was still in my own land?
This is the reason that I fled before to Tarshish,
because I knew that You are a gracious God and merciful,
slow to anger, abundant in faithfulness, and ready to relent from punishment."
[2] And he prayed unto the LORD, and said, I pray thee, O LORD, was not this
my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before unto
Tarshish: for I knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful, slow to
anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil.
Jesus
Mark 2:1-12
The Healing of a Paralytic
Mt 9:1-8; Lk 5:17-26
1 (Mt 9:1) Again, He entered Capernaum after some days.
And it was reported that He was in the house.
2 (Mk 1:45; 2:13) Immediately many were gathered together,
so that there was no room to receive them, not even at the door.
And He preached the word to them.
3 (Lk 5:18-26) They came to Him bringing one sick with paralysis,
who was carried by four men.
4 (Lk 5:19) When they could not come near Him due to the crowding,
they uncovered the roof where He was. When they had broken it open,
they let down the bed on which the paralytic lay.
5 (Mt 9:2; 9:22) When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic,
"Son, your sins are forgiven you."
6 But some of the scribes were sitting there, reasoning in their hearts,
7 (Isa 43:25; Mk 14:64; Jn 10:36) "Why does this Man speak such blasphemies?
Who can forgive sins but God alone?"
8 Immediately, when Jesus perceived in His spirit that they so reasoned
within themselves, He said to them, "Why do you contemplate these things
in your hearts?
9 Which is easier to say to the paralytic: 'Your sins are forgiven you,'
or to say, 'Rise, take up your bed and walk'?
10 But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth
to forgive sins," He said to the paralytic,
11 "I say to you, rise, and take up your bed, and go your way to your house."
12 (Mt 9:8; 9:33) Immediately he rose, picked up the bed, and went out
in front of them all, so that they were all amazed and glorified God,
saying, "We never saw anything like this!"
[1] And again he entered into Capernaum, after some days; and it was noised
that he was in the house.
[2] And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no
room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the
word unto them.
[3] And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne
of four.
[4] And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered
the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed
wherein the sick of the palsy lay.
[5] When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy
sins be forgiven thee.
[6] But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in
their hearts,
[7] Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God
only?
[8] And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned
within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your
hearts?
[9] Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be
forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?
[10] But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive
sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,)
[11] I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine
house.
[12] And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them
all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never
saw it on this fashion.
Acts 26:18
18 (Ac 20:32; 1Pe 2:9; Isa 35:5) to open their eyes and to turn them from
darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive
forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified
by faith in Me.'
[18] To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from
the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and
inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.
Colossians 2:13
13 (Eph 2:1; Jas 2:26) And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision
of your flesh, He has resurrected together with Him, having forgiven you all
sins.
[13] And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh,
hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
Colossians 3:13
13 (Eph 4:32; Mk 11:25; Eph 4:2) Bear with one another and forgive one
another. If anyone has a quarrel against anyone, even as Christ forgave you,
so you must do.
[13] Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a
quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
