[ In the above passage, two things are particularly difficult for many: 1) forgiveness and 2) faith. ]

I am pretty sure there is no more important thing to humans than forgiveness.. whether you are christian or not..

The lack of forgiveness has made more people miserable and miserable to be around than anything I know..

The lack of forgiveness can plunge you into a "lake of fire" as surely as falling overboard.. for it is indeed a "fire".. a consuming fire..

If you can only teach your children ONE THING.. it should be to forgive freely and wisely.. You can remember as you wish without forgiveness at your own peril.. Forgiveness will heal your own mind.. A forgiving heart is not like a medicine, it is a medicine.. A medicine that casts out many demons..

The ONLY way to teach forgiveness is by doing it.. I don't know how anybody makes it without faith..

THAT’S AN EXTREMELY CRUCIAL AND BIBLICAL EXHORTATION.

I HOPE EVERYONE WHO READS IT WILL TAKE IT TO HEART

AND

TAKE IT TO ACTION IMMEDIATELY IN ALL THEIR RELATIONSHIPS.
