Listen "You Are Forgiven | Forgiving Others"
Episode Synopsis
This sermon explores the challenging yet transformative practice of forgiving others as Christ has forgiven us. Josh emphasizes that while Christians readily embrace receiving forgiveness from God, extending that same forgiveness to others requires supernatural power and intentional practice. The message clarifies common misconceptions about forgiveness—it doesn't mean denying what happened, returning to abusive situations, or waiting for an apology. Instead, forgiveness is a gift we give to others and ourselves that breaks the cycle of revenge and sets us free from the prison of bitterness. The sermon distinguishes between forgiveness (a one-way, unconditional act) and reconciliation (which requires repentance from both parties). Ultimately, forgiveness is presented as a journey that often requires repeated choices to release offenders to God, pray for their blessing, and trust God with justice. This practice demonstrates the reality of Christ's kingdom in a world bent on vengeance.
