hold until the day of his Crucifixion? Did he have the power to forgive on spot? he certainly had the power of healing on the spot and remotely also. Since his earthly death, all of us have our sins forgiven and they no longer exist. Only when we refuse to believe in God’s grace are we headed to non- existence, and there will be no remembrance of us and no tears shed. so sad! when all you have to do is say you believe what God has already made known to us.
In order for Jesus to have "walked the earth [sic]," he’d have to have existed. He didn’t. There is *no* evidence for a historical Jesus.
Nothing real requires faith.

Our sins are forgiven and forgotten by God immediately, as if they never happened… but that is only if we are under the atoning blood of Jesus in faith.

Nope, they were not put on hold… They were punished. Every single one Jesus took upon Himself and cleared our debt.
Even Abhrahams sins were taken by Christ. Ours too… God went into the past and future and took them all…

Yes… he forgave on the spot.
Humans continue to sin over and over but those specific sins that Jesus Christ forgave were gone, forgiven.

Jesus did forgive sins before the cross. The adulterous woman who by the law had to be stoned, was forgiven of sin. This was directly contrary to the law. He said, go and sin no more. I don’t think she never sinned after that. But, sin was forgiven. We have the power to forgive sin. He that is without sin, cast the first stone. This is to show us that Mercy and Grace override the law. Love thy neighbor is now the rule, not the Rules.
