An unforgiving heart is an unforgiven heart…forgiven people forgive people.
1) Forgiveness isn’t the absence of anger toward someone’s sin.
God gets righteously angry at sin…so should we.
2) Forgiveness isn’t just for the person who wronged you…it’s for you.
If you don’t forgive them, they’re controlling you & they aren’t even thinking about it.
3) Forgiveness doesn’t mean justice doesn’t happen. God is a just God so there’ll be payment for their sin. If they die without Jesus, they’ll either pay for it for all eternity in Hell or, if they are a Christian, Jesus has already paid for it. No sin will be swept under the rug.
