Forgiveness is a biblical doctrine with which we are all familiar. We understand that we need
forgiveness when we sin. We know that Jesus is the One Who provided the only means by which
we can be forgiven, His blood that was shed on the Cross. And, we are fully aware that we receive
full pardon from our sins when we contact His blood in our obedience to Him. What a feeling to be
forgiven!
Forgiveness is not only desired from God, but also from those against whom we sin. We will go
to great lengths at times to make sure that people know how sorry we are for offending them. We
might go great distances, stop what we are presently doing and immediately take action, ask several
times for forgiveness, and possibly spend much of the rest of our lives trying to “make up” for what
we have done, out of a sense of deep guilt, because we feel so bad about our actions.
Forgiveness is not only desired from God and those whom we offend, it is also to be extended by
us to others when they sin against us. Many times this is where Satan catches us. He tempts us to
NOT forgive others because we were so hurt by the offense, or because of our pride, or because we
focus on the betrayal of our trust in them, or for a host of other reasons. What does real forgiveness
look like?
♥ Like an action from the heart because we have really forgiven from the heart
♥ Like we are not holding a grudge because we have really decided that we would treat others as if
they had never offended us
♥ Like we are sympathetic because we really do understand that each of us sins and how bad our sin
makes us feel
♥ Like we are friends because we really do value our relationship as brothers and sisters in Christ
too much to let inappropriate feelings hinder us
♥ Like God’s forgiveness of us because we know that He forgives us out of His great love for us
and we really want to be like Him.
Now, that’s real forgiveness!
