He forgives our sins:

1 John 1:9
9     If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
     
            When we come to Jesus, all our past sins are at that moment forgiven. The slate is wiped clean when we come to Jesus. If after that we should sin, all we need to do is confess it. It wasn’t just a one time benefit of forgiveness. It keeps on working in our lives forever. He not only forgives us, but He also cleanses us from all unrighteousness, so that we won’t keep on committing sins. Otherwise, we would have to keep on asking forgiveness for the same things the rest of our lives. I know it seems like we will have to do that for some sins, but that is not what He intends for us.


If you could hear God speak to you, I believe this is what He would say:
            "My children know that My desire is for you to walk in freedom. That freedom comes from knowing that you have right standing with Me. When you do not confess your sins, you walk about in bondage to that sin. Confess it to Me. There is nothing too big for My forgiveness; nothing too hard for you to overcome and walk in My freedom of righteousness.”

            8. If in the future, I ever do anything wrong and confess it, He will forgive me.
