Remit: To Dismiss; Set Free.

Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you. And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost: whose soever sins ye REMIT, they are REMITTED unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained. (John 20:21-23)
