Forgiveness
forgiveness was granted by the death of God’s only son, Jesus. It is important that we value the importance of His resurrection.
It is only through forgiveness that we can continue to keep the relationships we have with one another. What would happen if nobody ever forgave each other? Even on a good day, if you pay attention, you ask for forgiveness and receive it multiple times. If nobody forgave each other, friendships would never exist. Even God needs to forgive our sins to maintain that personal relationship with us.
Throughout the oldest sacrifices were made to ask God to forgive them. God didn’t have to, but he did. And after Jesus died, we no longer had to give a sacrifice anymore, because Jesus was the ultimate sacrifice that atoned for all our sins.
It is through forgiveness that we can truly form better relationships.
it is through forgiveness that we can form a closer and more personal relationship between one another
forgiveness heals broken relationships
forgiveness draws us closer to each other on a personal level and helps us get to know each other better. Likewise it is with God. So if you think your all that, and don’t’ require forgiveness. or that your afraid of confronting your sins with God. you should think twice. because God is a gracious God.
ontop of that.
if you have any problems, or grudges against friends or past friends. try extending some forgiveness to them. since forgiveness is only exercised by the ‘wronged’ person.
