When we confess, “I believe in the forgiveness of sins,” we confess the sinfulness of our sin and our need for forgiveness — one of the most controversial and beautiful truths Christians believe.

Jun 29, 2019 · When we are caught in habitual or besetting sin, our problem, at its core, may be simple. What’s holding us captive is a deceptive belief about what will make us happy. I know the objections that might come. We do often “know” that a sin is destructive to us and others.
How Can a Person Be Born Again? The work of Christ on the cross is the objective basis for a person’s salvation (His shed blood—and that alone is what saves us). “What can wash away my sin?” the song asks, “nothing but the blood of Jesus.” But there is also a subjective side to salvation which we must understand.
