Psalms 25:11

11: For the honor of your name, O LORD, forgive my many, many sins.

Help us, O God of our salvation! Help us for the honor of your name. Oh, save us and forgive our sins for the sake of your name.

You are my rock and my fortress. For the honor of your name, lead me out of this peril.

I am writing to you, my dear children, because your sins have been forgiven because of Jesus.

"I--yes, I alone--am the one who blots out your sins for my own sake and will never think of them again.

For the glory of your name, O LORD, save me. In your righteousness, bring me out of this distress.

"Therefore, give the people of Israel this message from the Sovereign LORD: I am bringing you back again but not because you deserve it. I am doing it to protect my holy name, which you dishonored while you were scattered among the nations.

Yet for my own sake and for the honor of my name, I will hold back my anger and not wipe you out.

But deal well with me, O Sovereign LORD, for the sake of your own reputation! Rescue me because you are so faithful and good.

But I didn't do it, for I acted to protect the honor of my name. That way the surrounding nations wouldn't be able to laugh at Israel's God, who had promised to deliver his people.

God's law was given so that all people could see how sinful they were. But as people sinned more and more, God's wonderful kindness became more abundant.
So just as sin ruled over all people and brought them to death, now God's wonderful kindness rules instead, giving us right standing with God and resulting in eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

"Please, Lord, prove that your power is as great as you have claimed it to be. For you said,
`The LORD is slow to anger and rich in unfailing love, forgiving every kind of sin and rebellion. Even so he does not leave sin unpunished, but he punishes the children for the sins of their parents to the third and fourth generations.'
Please pardon the sins of this people because of your magnificent, unfailing love, just as you have forgiven them ever since they left Egypt."

And what a difference between our sin and God's generous gift of forgiveness. For this one man, Adam, brought death to many through his sin. But this other man, Jesus Christ, brought forgiveness to many through God's bountiful gift.
