Does GOD Always Forgive?

An ideal answer from the head will be a resounding "Yes!". However it becomes challenging when we have to deal with the reality of this question with our hearts when we find ourselves or others unforgiveable. Here's some short references from Scriptures that tell us, "GOD does forgive" whatever the circumstances:

Luke's Gospel

5:17-26 - Jesus forgives and cures the Paralytic
7:36-50 - Jesus and a Penitent woman
15:1-7 - The Story of the Lost Sheep
15:8-10 - The Misplaced Silver Coin
15:11-32 - The Prodigal Son
19:1-10 - Jesus and Zacchaeus, the Tax Collector

Other Gospels

Matt 9:9-13 - Jesus' concern for Sinners
John 8:1-11 - A Woman caught in Adultery
John 20:19-23 - Jesus' Easter gift of Peace and Forgiveness

In All Gospels - The Passion of our Lord. Christ dying for our sins.
