Announcements
NYC Sponsoring $600/6 students (Wheeler)
Board Meeting tomorrow 6pm Prayer 6:30p-7:30pm Meeting.
Recap
Love (sacrificial and empowered by the spirit)
Mercy/Justice/Grace (What we often want is vengeance, but that is God’s.
Ours is to give grace as we follow Christ’s example.
Again, only by the spirit)
The Command
Matthew 18:
But in my heart, it is unfair to let them off the hook.
Forgiveness is more about my heart, then letting someone off the hook.
The Example
If you need incentive to forgive someone, take a look in the mirror and realize what Christ forgave.
“To be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you.”
~ C.S. Lewis
The Challenge
We all have a hard time with this idea, but Christ points out that it is our responsibility to enact forgiveness.
It isn’t about letting someone off the hook, it is about moving that cancerous resentment and vengeance out of our hearts.
Your challenge:
“Everyone thinks forgiveness is a lovely idea until he has something to forgive.”
~ C.S. Lewis
Who do you need to forgive?
Who needs to be given the opportunity to forgive you?
