56. Q. What do you believe concerning “the forgiveness of sins”?

A. I believe that God, because of Christ’s satisfaction, will no longer remember any of my sins¹ or my sinful nature which I need to struggle against all my life.² Rather, by his grace God grants me the righteousness of Christ that I may never come into judgment.³
