What does the Bible say about absolution?
It is a declaration of God's promised forgiveness to all who repent (Matt 11:28 , John 3:16–18 , Acts 2:38–39 , Acts 26:18 , 1 John 1:9 , 2:1–2 ). This absolution either declares the promised forgiveness, “God forgives us in Christ”; or it prays for it in faith, “May God grant you the forgiveness of your sins.”
