    Is there anyone you wouldn’t want to run into in a long, narrow hallway?

    Lots of times, I share a personal story to start the message each week. But not today. Why not? I’m talking about the hurts of life that come from other people. And like everyone, I’ve been hurt.

    We have been forgiven much, therefore we must forgive others much.

    Perhaps you’ve heard the story about the stubborn old farmer who was plowing his field. A neighbor who was watching as he tried to guide the mule finally said, "I don’t want to butt in, but you could save yourself a lot of work by saying "gee" and "haw," instead of jerking on the reins."

    The desire to take revenge is not necessarily sinful, but we must not take our own revenge. Government may do so, but if it fails, ultimately God will take revenge.

    Forgiveness is Conditional, Part 3: When The Offender Won’t Repent Thus far in our series, we have tried to answer the following questions: (1) Do I have to forgive someone who has not repented? The answer I gave was, "no." God does not forgive those who will not repent, and He is our ...read more

    What do we do when something bad happens to us, and there’s no one to forgive? What do we do when the only person we can hold responsible is God Himself? How can we forgive God?
