When we obey the gospel, we step into God’s mercy. Apostle Peter preached on the Day of Pentecost not only the gospel, which is the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus, but also how to obey the gospel.
"Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?" - Acts 2:37
"Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." - Acts 2:38
When we repent and are baptized in the name of JESUS, the blood of Jesus has been applied to our life. The blood that he shed when he suffered and died for us has washed away all our sins.
We are forgiven.
It is of utmost importance that we also forgive.
"For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:" - Matthew 6:14
"But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses." - Matthew 6:15
