Forgiveness Is Yours received positive reviews from music critics. On Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from professional publications, the album received an average score of 71, based on seven reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[2]

At Slant Magazine, Steve Erickson stated that "Fat White Family may have dropped some of the more antagonistic aspects of their image and adopted a slightly slicker sound, but their anger is still very palpable. Music isn't worth performing, they seem to suggest, if it doesn't risk pissing people off, or at least challenging the listener's complacency. With Forgiveness Is Yours, Saoudi and company achieve that objective—with a patina of sophistication."[6] In his review for NME, Jordan Bassett wrote about Fat White Family's artistic switch from music that was "more invested in offending their audience than crafting much of a tune" to music that he states is more respectable and "burrows down the rabbit-hole of respectability".[5]
