[Esaias]

Remission of sins and forgiveness of sins are identical expressions in the Greek. There is no difference. Whenever you see 'for the remission of sins' you can just as accurately translate it as 'for the forgiveness of sins'. Anyone suggesting there is a difference between remission and forgiveness of sins is not using the words of the apostles or of Jesus, because those words were written in Greek. There is no Biblical distinction between forgiveness of sins and remission of sins.
