Hello! I am undergoing the process of forgiving others and was interested in hearing about your experiences.

Excellent presentation. It is wonderful to hear that you are free of those demonic thoughts. Realize that when you became a born-again Believer you were equipped with a Spiritual Nature that is monitored by the Holy Spirit. HE is always present to provide instruction, leadership, and, of course, Spiritual guidance. Sometimes the brain gets in the way of that (the old sinful part of the brain is still hanging around); a clear understanding of who you are in Christ Jesus is very helpful. Therefore, let me offer this:Hello! I am undergoing the process of forgiving others and was interested in hearing about your experiences.
Thanks so much for this! I struggle many times and doubt that I am truly forgiven. John 3:16 tells me so, but sometimes I doubt when I read Mark, Luke, and John regarding those who believe and practice unrighteousness or when Jesus describes the requirements for heaven (Mark 11:25-26 for example).Excellent presentation.

Jesus forgave you of all sin (no exceptions) at the Cross. He doesn't mess with partial forgiveness! Entering Heaven is based upon His forgiveness and your confession of Him as Savior....hold on....that's it!
Right now you don't clearly understand that....you aren't accepting of the wonderful, glorious Spiritual Truth that you ARE forgiven now and forever! On that day when you enter Heaven you will be in Perfect Accord with the Will of God, Hallelujah!
Let go of doubt as you go on forgiving others mentally, perhaps emotionally, fulfilling a personal need, just don't let that bog down the assurance that YOU belong to JESUS! He loves you, He will never leave you or forsake you! Give Him Praise and Glory!!
And all God's Children shouted and sang and rejoiced and offered up prayers of thanksgiving for Our Savior, Jesus our Lord!

Thanks! Stay tuned to the info I presented (rather, He presented). Flip over to read this in the KJV:Thanks so much for this! I struggle many times and doubt that I am truly forgiven.

If you forgive and forget, then you condemn yourself to repeat the same mistakes. God created us with memory - and often this memory protects us from making the same mistakes over and over, such as letting people walk all over us, abuse us, or take advantage of us. Forgiveness means not holding it against them - meaning, let go of the perceived debt they owe you for hurting you. But it does not mean setting yourself up for them to do it again.i have been doing some research on forgiveness and came across a video, where the preacher said, it is ok to forgive, but you need not forget and you can keep your distance from the person concerned. Just wondering if this is true!
