'Acquittal' in the Bible

gaining acquittal from guilt by His free unpurchased grace through the deliverance which is found in Christ Jesus.

who was surrendered to death because of the offences we had committed, and was raised to life because of the acquittal secured for us.

And it is not with the gift as it was with the results of one individual's sin; for the judgement which one individual provoked resulted in condemnation, whereas the free gift after a multitude of transgressions results in acquittal.

It follows then that just as the result of a single transgression is a condemnation which extends to the whole race, so also the result of a single decree of righteousness is a life-giving acquittal which extends to the whole race.

But if while we are seeking in Christ acquittal from guilt we ourselves are convicted of sin, Christ then encourages us to sin! No, indeed.

I do not nullify the grace of God; for if acquittal from guilt is obtainable through the Law, then Christ has died in vain."
