Bible Note: Hello Kathy, Welcome to the Forum. You stated, "So, if we repent of our sins and work hard not to repeat them, we will enjoy forgiveness." Where do we find this in scripture? Does not Eph. 1:7 explicitly say, "In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace" (NASB) (Also, cf. Eph. 4:32, Col. 2:13, 3:13) If you don't mind me asking, I read your profile and noticed your use of "Jehovah" and that (one of) your Bible versions is the New World Translation!
