Jim Chapman of Rocky Mountain Family Council spoke yesterday at Southern Gables Church. He preached about forgiveness in the church from Colossians and Philemon.
Forgiveness was never intended to be a private affair between you and God.He asks the question:
Is our church characterized and known for forgiveness of each other within the church? Is this a forgiving place?
We need to be forgivers! Let's give each other a break.
Believers must forgive each other, even if the transgressor doesn't repent... There's no wiggle room... There's no cop-out room. Martin Luther said, "Forgive, for that is God's command." ...The context here never suggests conditional forgiveness on our part.
