The Forgiven

Video Illustration

Produced by James Grocho (Grochowalski)

Forgiving is the last thing we want to do when we are hurt by someone. This video illustrates that Jesus came to change the system of forgiveness. And that forgiveness is appealing to a higher court and that we can be set free by the power of the living God.

Redemption And Forgiveness

Video Illustration

Produced by James Grocho (Grochowalski)

At the foot of the Cross, amidst the agony and suffering, Jesus spoke his first words: "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing." In these words lies the essence of redemption — forgiveness extended to all, regardless of their sins. We, too, carry our burdens, our mistakes, our regrets. But at the Cross, forgiveness flows freely. Let these words echo in your heart, reminding you that there is no sin too great, no mistake too vast, that cannot be washed away by the grace found at the Cross. Embrace forgiveness, for it is the first step towards redemption.

Forgive

We have all been wronged, and we have all been hurt. However, Jesus calls us to forgive. God has shown us abundant mercy. We deserved death, but He gave us life. We need to give mercy to others as well. Don’t repay evil for evil. Reconcile with one another, and seek restoration. Abound in love. Forgive, as you were forgiven.
