Most laws condemn the soul and pronounce sentence. The result of the law of my God is perfect. It condemns but forgives. It restores - more than abundantly - what it takes away.

Jim Elliot

Only God truly forgives, man sometimes forgives, nature never forgives.

Jerome Lejeune

Whenever God restores something, He restores it to a place greater than it was before.

Bill Johnson

You think God will never forgive you, but the only God is beauty and beauty always forgives. It forgives with its infinite indifference.

Glen Duncan

God forgives not capriciously, but with wise, definite, Divine pre arrangement; forgives universally, on the grounds of atonement and on the condition of repentance and faith.

Richard Salter Storrs

every time God forgives us, God is saying that God's own rules do not matter as much as the relationship that God wants to create with us.

Richard Rohr

Society often forgives the criminal; it never forgives the dreamer.

Oscar Wilde

God always forgives when you are totally repentant and you desire to change. He forgives... and He never gets tired of forgiving. Never. You may get tired asking. I hope not. He never, never tires of forgiving. Never.

Mother Angelica

There is no injustice in the grace of God. God is as just when He forgives a believer as when He casts a sinner into hell.

Charles Spurgeon

God forgives us and remembers our sin no more; therefore, stop remembering what God has forgotten.

Joyce Meyer

There are two gods. The god our teachers teach us about, and the God who teaches us. The god about whom people usually talk, and the God who talks to us. The god we learn to fear, and the God who speaks to us of mercy. The god who is somewhere up on high, and the God who is here in our daily lives. The god who demands punishment, and the God who forgives us our trespasses. The god who threatens us with the torments of Hell, and the God who shows us the true path. There are two gods. A god who casts us off because of our sins, and a God who calls to us with His love.

Paulo Coelho

When God brings deep conviction and I agree with Him about my condition, God restores my confidence in Him.

Johnny Hunt

When people say, "I know God forgives me, but I can't forgive myself," they mean that they have failed an idol, whose approval is more important than God's.

Timothy Keller

First of all, you ask me if the God of Christians forgives one who doesn't believe and doesn't seek the faith. Premise that - and it's the fundamental thing - the mercy of God has no limits if one turns to him with a sincere and contrite heart; the question for one who doesn't believe in God lies in obeying one's conscience.
