He forgives those who truly repent, who desire to never again do what they did, and heal the wound as much as is possible. There is no single human who is the controller or beneficiary of the faith. There are cults that use Christianity, but Jesus himself cannot gain anything from his followers.
Jesus did not endorse a church. He said to follow Him. Thus it is a personal relationship with the Father that no priest nor pastor is required and dictated by. We do not judge, only God does and only his approval is what matters most. We cannot bargain with him nor pay for our sins. This is why believing Jesus as the messiah and that we repent our sins that God sees Jesus in us and not us. We are called by our name and not by our sin through Jesus.
God sees human life as sacred and offers a way to associate with him through Christ. A Bible study or sermon is opportunity for one to find Christ in people when the Holy Spirit is present or through prayer. His forgiveness and mercy will have him always around and one is never alone regardless of the ordeal.
