Scripture speaks of the importance of confession & forgiveness (Psalm 32; Psalm 51; I John 1:8-9; James 5:16; 2 Samuel 12:13). We confess our sins to the Lord with full confidence that, as Christ has died for our sins and has risen from the tomb, we know that by His grace He will graciously forgive us. We look to God’s Word to see our sins, namely the 10 commandments, but our confession is not to spend all day looking at our sins but to the free and gracious forgiveness won for each of us. Repent and believe in His undeserved forgiveness in His Christ.
