For our Lord is good and merciful, and forgiveth right soon these venial sins and miscarriages, or excesses about meat and drink (by reason that the occasions of them are hardest to eschew, because of the necessity there is of seeking and taking of them for the upholding of our corporal lives and healths) unto an humble soul.(John Climacus)

A venial sin is a forgiveable error, accessible to grace, pardon, and indulgence.

I understand that our sins are not only forgiveable, but already forgiven. This was the Good News of Jesus.

Sin still separates us from God, still complicates our living, and has a range of other consequences. But is any sin beyond forgiving, beyond God's grace?

I can imagine forgiveness being effectively rejected. God will not force stubborn pride to submit, even to love and grace.

But with the help of true humility every sin is venial.
