For one thing is that we are all sinners and God raised us from those sins, habits, values, and guilt of our unconverted lives. We are changed by the Spirit as if we had never sinned.
The wages of sin is death and the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus.
Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.
We had 613 commandments against us and Christ nailed them to the Cross. Every man who ever lived is guilty of some of them, but through Jesus we are washed as if we never sinned and He puts our sins away from us as far as the east is from the west and remember them no more.
Thank you Jesus!

Jesus/God is holy and sin separates us from God. God can't accept sin so all sin must be erased.
If God didn't forgive all sin,who would say where the cut off point would be? i/e how many sins are too many sins? Could a 60 year old person have twice as many sins as a 30 year old person and still get to heaven? Which sins should be forgiven and which ones should not be forgiven?

Because God is perfectly holy and if all of our sins were not forgiven then we could not be allowed in the presence of a holy God. It would demean God if he allowed it otherwise and make him less than God.
