What are the basics of Christianity? #2

What are the basics of Christianity?
My second verse promised to share with you;

#1 our knowledge and ownership of eternal life. (1Jn 5:11-13 GW)

#2 We must know that our sins are forgiven (1Jn 1:9 KJV)

We ARE forgiven our sins on the basis of the message of truth, the GOOD NEWS that has saved us. (Eph 1:13 ). We have repented our sins to experience the grace of GOD. (Act 3:19). Forgiveness is a pre-requisite to becoming a child of GOD!

1Jn 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

With this knowledge, if we ever are confronted with how we know that all our sins are forgiven, lets be able to recite this verse 1 Jon 1:9

Our Father, we praise you for your grace, for your Son, Jesus Christ, through whom we are certain an eternal life and forgiveness of all our sins. Amen
