According to the authoress, modern declarations of forgiveness and repentance are based on two assumptions: assumption of the collective responsibility, and assumption of the continuity of the national community. She argues for the claim that these declarations, these assumptions notwithstanding, are not contradictory with the liberal state but are complementary to it. She identifies, at the same time, numerous moral problems that follow from accepting this claim.

The message of sin and repentance is one of the crucial themes of the second part of Luke’s work. The author stresses Israel’s guilt and the gravity of every sin. Using the case of Ananias and Sapphira he emphasizes the fact that sins are punished. That is why Peter in his speeches points the necessity of repentance and penance and exhorts people to be baptised ‘in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins’ (Acts 2, 38). Giving up sin is the precondition for forgiveness, which is stated in the fragment on Simon in Acts 8, 18-24.
