Colossians 1:12-14:

Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:

Notes on Colossians 1:12-14:

You are delivered!  You don’t have to pray to be delivered from evil – you ARE delivered as a New Testament believer.  You are no longer part of Satan’s kingdom.   You are “out of bounds” to him now because you’re in another kingdom – Jesus’ kingdom.

You HAVE forgiveness for all your sins NOW because of the redemption Jesus wrought with His blood.  You do not have a mixed bag of forgiven and unforgiven sins, and you don’t have to confess or repent of individual sins to get forgiven.  (You DO need to repent to get the sins out of your life so that you stop doing them, but that is a different matter from obtaining forgiveness for them, which you already have.)

Some people question whether Jesus could have paid for your future sins as well as your past ones, but all your past sins were “future” sins from Jesus’ perspective when He hung on the cross.  His sacrifice was enough to take care of them.  So the forgiveness you now have is for ALL your sins, past, present and future.  Being forgiven does not mean that you can’t be ensnared by sins, though, and that is where repentance comes in.
