Forgiveness is a major theme in the Scriptures and there are many verses showing this. Jesus came to be sacrifed for the forgiveness of our sins. He taught that all sins can be forgiven except the sin against the Holy Spirit of God - rejecting It after receiving It. Here is just one verse to give you a flavor.

Matthew 18:21-22New International Version (NIV)

The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant

21 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?"

22 Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.[a]
