Day 150. What grace does God give to you in absolution? (2025)

Today is day 150 and we are studying The Sacrament of Absolution.

150. What grace does God give to you in absolution?

In absolution, God conveys his pardon through the Cross, removes and cancels my sin, declares me reconciled and at peace with him, and grants me the assurance of his grace and salvation. (Psalm 32; Matthew 18:18; Acts 5:30–32; 1 John 1:8–10)

We will conclude today with The Concluding Prayer in Reconciliation of Penitents on page 224 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
