Who can forgive sins?

Preachers Corner https://www.preacherscorner.org.uk

If we take a look around us today we see one big barrier separating us from a holy and righteous God. That barrier is “SIN”. This sin-barrier is too much for us to take on ourselves. In fact, there is no way we can remove it on our own. That is why God sent someone to remove it, a Saviour: Jesus Christ. God sent His OWN son, Jesus to die in your place. He was crucified on a cross and shed His blood for YOU! By this great sacrifice, God is able to forgive you of your sins completely. This great salvation you can receive by repentance towards God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

Bible Scriptures: Darby Tranlation

Mark 2:1-12And he entered again into Capernaum after [several] days, and it was reported that he was at [the] house;2 and straightway many were gathered together, so that there was no longer any room, not even at the door; and he spoke the word to them.3 And there come to him [men] bringing a paralytic, borne by four;4 and, not being able to get near to him on account of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where he was, and having dug [it] up they let down the couch on which the paralytic lay.5 But Jesus, seeing their faith, says to the paralytic, Child, thy sins are forgiven [thee].

6 But certain of the scribes were there sitting, and reasoning in their hearts,7 Why does this [man] thus speak? he blasphemes. Who is able to forgive sins except God alone?8 And straightway Jesus, knowing in his spirit that they are reasoning thus within themselves, said to them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts?9 Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, [Thy] sins are forgiven [thee]; or to say, Arise, and take up thy couch and walk? 10 But that ye may know that the Son of man has power on earth to forgive sins, he says to the paralytic,11 To thee I say, Arise, take up thy couch and go to thine house.12 And he rose up straightway, and, having taken up his couch, went out before [them] all, so that all were amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it thus.
