II. The Power of the Keys
982
There is no offense, however serious, that the Church cannot forgive.
“There is no one, however wicked and guilty, who may not confidently hope
for forgiveness, provided his repentance is honest.527 Christ who died
for all men desires that in his Church the gates of forgiveness should always
be open to anyone who turns away from sin.528
