Three main areas:
1)How do you forgive someone? It is one of the most difficult commands given by Jesus. People don't always repent and say sorry for the wrongs they've done against you when you try to forgive. Others deny the offense, still others continue to hurt you years later. Sometimes people don't want to be friends with you anymore, and often the offense cannot be made up for, e.g. lost money, murder, etc.
2)And why does Jesus want us to forgive seventy times seven? Are christians to be doormats for the offender?
3)Have you forgiven someone? Do you have a testimony to share to encourage the rest of us?
This thread is here to discuss these issues and also share testimonies of times when you or someone you know has forgiven successfully.
