Justification through God's forgiveness does not extend to present and future sins, as repentance is required to turn away from sin. The forgiveness we receive when initially coming to God does not cover ongoing sins, particularly mortal sins that separate us from God. The Lord's prayer emphasizes the need for ongoing repentance and forgiveness, and Jesus highlights the importance of forgiving others in order to be forgiven by God.
