pardon
- pardon
One of a group of words with similar meanings—such as
forgiveness and
reconciliation. The
OT contains numerous promises that God offers pardon where he finds repentance (
2 Chron. 7:14;
Ps. 86:5) and elaborate provision for pardon by God was made in sacrifice
s and by preaching of the prophets (
Ezek. 33:10–16). The message is continued by Jesus (
Luke 15), but Paul introduces a new dimension by proclaiming Christ crucified as the basis for obtaining pardon. The
NT Church understood the new covenant in Jesus' blood in their celebrations of the
Lord's Supper to be for the forgiveness of
sins (
1 Cor. 11:25): it led to reconciliation and peace with God (
2 Cor. 5:18–21;
Rom. 5:1).
