Often, Christian teachers make forgiveness sound like we have to somehow be okay with the hurt someone inflicted on us while the offender walks away without a care, but that is not what the Bible says. The Bible teaches that forgiveness deals with both the injury inflicted upon us and the responsibility of the other person to apologize and make things right. But what do you do if they don’t do what is right?
The scriptures tell us that you can forgive someone and at the same time ask the Lord to deal with them according to His justice. This study cuts through religious tradition to examine the Word in cultural context and in balance, examining what the Bible actually says about forgiveness, and lays out a path to emotional and spiritual health!
