Lesson 17 – Forgiveness

 

Background

 

 

Everyone has a constant need for Forgiveness … because as human beings we sin against God, other people and ourselves.

Forgiveness is a Command from God! (Matthew 18:21-22)

 

Furthermore, Forgiveness is not based on emotions … it is a choice every Christian has to make, regardless of the "temperature of the heart" (Matthew 6:12).

 

Sometimes you have to ask Forgiveness for every deed or word that may have hurt another person … even if you did nothing wrong!
