Hello,Welcome to the Simple Not Shallow Podcast. My name is Charles, and this is the Coffee Side Chat series. So named because of this amazing cup of coffee sitting on the counter right beside me. We are coming to you from the hallowed halls of Mykitchen University. The kitchen counter is the perfect place to stand, talk, laugh, and learn together while sipping on a cup of beautiful coffee.Let me ask you a question. Why is forgiving others so important to our faith? Well, let’s kick this around while looking at it through the lens of what it means to be a Christian and see what we come up with. Now, this lens is a following of Jesus that involves a relationship leading to studentship leading to a life lived from what is learned. All three altogether, not one or the other. But all are intrinsically linked and in balance with each other.So, forgiving others… Why is it so important?Matthew 6:9-15 ~  The Lord’s Prayer, forgiveness linked to forgiving others. And Jesus saying that if we do not forgive others God will not forgive us.Matthew 22: 36-40 ~ The 2 greatest commands ever given and Jesus saying that these 2 from the basis for all other commands.1 John 4:8, 20, 21 ~ If we do not love we do not know God.Proverbs 10:12; 1 Corinthians 13:5; and 1 Peter 4:8 ~ Love forgive, covers over sin.Proverbs 17:9 ~ Forgiveness promotes love.Here are some links to:My favorite YouTube apologist: Mike Wingerhttps://www.youtube.com/@MikeWingerMy favorite online church service: Alistair Begghttps://www.youtube.com/@truthforlife1For more of my stuff:To this episode on our website: leave comments here.https://www.simplenotshallow.com/the-sns-podcast/114My Podcast:https://www.simplenotshallow.com/podcast-home-pageThe Simple Not Shallow website:https://www.simplenotshallow.comTo the internet home of Mykitchen U: https://www.simplenotshallow.com/mykitchen-uIf you like what you have heard and would like a memento... or at least a coffee mug.
