When are sins forgiven? (Jesus Christ, pray, sin, bible, point of view)

[Baerly]

Does the bible tell us when sins are forgiven?

[Mike182]

i guess the iblical answer would be "when you repent" or "when you ask to be forgiven"

[Baerly]

Is it possible that you could give me a bible verse on that? Baerly

Just ask, as Jesus taught us in "The Lord's Prayer"....

Mat 6:12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

Luke 11:4 And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil.

Jesus also told us: forgive, and you will be forgiven....

Mark 11:25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.

Luke 6:37 Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:

We are admonished to pray in Faith:

James 5:15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him

There is a statutory agreement of about seven years. After seven years GOD can't touch you.

From an Islamic point of view, all sins are forgiven any time the sinful person repents sincerly and resort to God with good intention to repent. God forgives all sins be it small or big, for God is Mercy.

It seems to me that all sins are on the body of Jesus Christ at Calvary.

2 Cor 5.21
20We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God. 21God made him who had no sin to be sin[a] for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

in the Torah the prescribed method was a Korban, often translated as sacrifice.
Though in later prophecies the method of repentance through prayer became equally acceptable...
ultimately forgiveness can only be attained if the person is truely repentent and acts upon their change of heart...
