Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. Colossians 3:13
Citizens of the New Kingdom are encouraged to give each other the benefit of the doubt. Even when all evidence shows that we are right we must not insist on being right but must show love to the one who wronged us.
Citizens of the New Kingdom seek to forgive each other and not to hold grudges nor seek revenge. The forgiveness we show to others cannot ever measure up to the forgiveness King Jesus gave to us.
Since we are God's chosen, holy and dearly loved people let us live in our King's forgiveness and may we choose to forgive those who wrong us.
