I contend that there is no provision or need for a man to forgive sins committed against God for God and determine a punishment/penitence for those sins. Only God can do that. Thankfully He has through the finished work of His Son!
I can and must forgive sins committed against me by others before God can forgive me of my repented sins.
I cannot forgive a sin perpetrated against you or another. You or the other individual must do that for your/their forgiveness from God.
The Holy Spirit will guide us in those pursuits if we ask.....BVB
