(Lesson 1508)(11-20-15) Matthew 6:14-15
"For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses."
Today's lesson is another very short one but is nonetheless very important. As is made clear in this quote, If Christian people expect God to forgive us, we should always be faithful to forgive those who would spitefully use us or those who would do us harm.
To hold a grudge against another person allows that person to have permanent control over a part of the life of the one harboring the grudge. Therefore, it is in the best interest of all of us to, first obey the instructions of Jesus to obtain the God's forgiveness, but then also to forgive those who offend us for our own personal benefit
