Les Feldick Bible Study

Are all sins forgiven, including past, present, and future sins?

Yes. When a person comes under the Gospel's forgiveness, all sins—past, present, and future—are forgiven. Christ died for the sins of the world, was buried, and rose again. Believers will never come into God's presence with sin because it has all been paid for. This rests not on human works but on Christ's accomplishment.

Les teaches that Christ died for the sins of the world, was buried, and rose from the dead, which is the very function of the Gospel. When a person comes under that forgiveness, Les emphasizes, they are forgiven everything—past, present, and future. He says believers will never come into God's presence with sin on their back, so to speak, because it has all been paid for. This is beyond human comprehension, but he believes it because the Book teaches that we have been forgiven all our trespasses, not because of anything we have done, but because of what Christ accomplished on our behalf. That makes the Gospel simple, and yet complex; we will never understand it this side of glory.
