To whom ye forgive any thing, I forgive also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ; Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
Now thanks be unto GOD, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of His knowledge by us in every place. For we are unto GOD a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish: To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things? For we are not as many, which corrupt the Word of GOD: but as of sincerity, but as of GOD, in the sight of GOD speak we in Christ. (2Co 2:10-11, 114-17)
Forgiveness of one another is essential to the love and charity that those in Christ are to have and do for one another. If we hold a grudge, or a root of bitterness, or even hatred in our thoughts, it allows the enemy of our souls and the accuser of the brethren an open door to deceive and disengage the people of GOD from not only living the Gospel we preach but also preaching the Gospel we live. If he can get us to focus on ourselves and not the work of GOD then many will not hear the message of Hope that we have.
But GOD, who has already won our victory, gives us His power within to overcome the evil one, by forgiving others, loving one another in truth and charity, and relying on Jesus Christ, who is our everything, for all our needs. Prayerful study of His Word, and prayer for one another, leads to sweet communion with our GOD and Saviour, Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD who is the Son of GOD, who loved us and gave Himself for us, and with all those who are in Christ. We can love others because He first loved us. We hold fast to His Truth and Keep His Word that we may know Him.
When we know Jesus in Truth through His Word, and fellowship in love with the brethren, We are empowered by the Spirit from on High to accomplish His will and work in this world. We preach Christ that others might be saved through repentance of their sins and faith in His finished and perfect work on the Cross of Calvary. We minister to those who are hurting and in need that others will see not only Christ, but their need of Him for Salvation. We disciple one another in the Word that all may grow to the full measure of Christ. We proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ to all who will hear, and as we go, preach the Gospel that those who turn from their sin and turn to GOD and believe in Him might have life in His Name.
For GOD is not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance and the knowledge of the Truth. Jesus loves you and wants to establish a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. Surrender to Him on His terms and He will give you a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. GOD calls you to trust Him and what He has already done for you to pay your sIn debt. He has provided the only way of reconciliation with GOD with forgiveness and Salvation through Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, to give you a new life in Christ. Turn away from yourself and your sIn and turn to Him alone for eternal Life, now and always.
