Forgiveness

Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg discusses forgiveness as a Christian duty, emphasizing the importance of letting go of anger and wrath and leaving it to God. Forgiveness does not necessarily mean letting the offender off the hook or withholding legal actions to ensure justice. Christians who refuse to forgive others will suffer the consequences of torment and lack of forgiveness from God. Forgiveness is a decision that requires discipline to align emotions with reality and is necessary for repairing broken relationships between humans and God.
