You should always be quick to forgive your neighbor when they sin against you. Why is it so important to forgive? Pastor Jeff teaches today that a spirit of unforgiveness can fester, and over time it’ll take root in your soul and cause you to become bitter towards those around you. By swallowing your pride and forgiving those who have wronged you, you make the mature decision to no longer live in anger, but to live in forgiveness. You should forgive others just as Christ has forgiven you.
