Cultivate Love: How to Forgive
Manage episode 440098144 series 1149183
Forgiveness is foundational to the Christian life and yet, it is often misunderstood. This misunderstanding creates one of the greatest obstacles to cultivating love in our lives. Originally used as a financial term, to forgive means to cancel a debt, choosing not to collect it now or in the future. With the Parable of the Unforgiving Servant (Matthew 18:21-35), Jesus teaches us that we should forgive others because of the forgiveness we have received from God. To cultivate a life in which God yields love in and around us, we must be people for whom forgiveness is not only freely received, but freely given.
