Episode 327: 327. Does God Only Forgive the Sins You Know About?

What if the way you were taught to forgive undermines the way you’re told to trust God? Many of us grew up hearing that God forgives only those who repent, so we should forgive that way too. It sounds biblical enough. But what happens to our assurance when we sin in ways we never notice? In Part 1 of a three-part series, Dr. J. Mark Beach joins Jared to challenge the “transactional” view of forgiveness, unpack what the biblical words for repentance mean, and ask whether repentance is the price of grace or its fruit.
