Forgiving Others

KEY VERSE:
Matthew 6:14-15 (ESV)
14 For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, 15 but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.


INTRODUCTION:
Anger, hate, bitterness, strife, aggression, frustration, depression, resentment of others all stem from one source. UNFORGIVENESS! All to often Christians miss the blessings of the Father because they refuse to forgive others! Christ wants our hearts to be forgiving toward all people just like His heart is. But Before we can extend love and forgiveness to others, we must first experience forgiveness from God the Father through His Son Jesus.
