Manage episode 432721057 series 3283033
Forgiveness of other people in our lives.
Forgiveness is not about what WE GET from it.
How do we walk in forgiveness when it is aimed at others?
OR when we have wronged others?
Colossians 3:13 - Bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.
Ephesians 4:32 - Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.
What does forgiveness look like when lived day to day from another’s offense?
Matthew 18:22-35
Forgiveness means taking what we think should be their penance or punishment, and turning that over for God’s judgment or control. This can be in each instance that the thought of their wrong comes up.
Forgiveness does not look like forgetting the trespass. Instead it looks like forgiving their sin against us, then if there is hope for reconciliation trust but be rebuild. Forgiveness does not mean no accountability. oooo
Forgive and get on with life attitude, how this can be toxic?
James 3
Titus
There is no reason in this world to forgive someone for these awful things, but there is a reason outside of this world.
