What Christians Should Know

WCSK shorts equip you with practical wisdom based on a brief Bible passage In the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) Jesus says many things that blow your mind and throw you for a loop. He describes forgiveness (c.f. Matthew 18:21-35) as a response to what God has done for us. So, because God forgives His own, we are now free to forgive. But let's face reality: oftentimes forgiveness is hard because we may not feel like it. So how do we forgive and what are the benefits of forgiveness? This episode provides clarity and meaningful answers. In the end forgiveness is better because it is God's way and His way is the way of life and freedom. Our Scripture focus will be Matthew 6:14-15.

The Reformers (of the Protestant Reformation) lived by the mantra, "Sola Scriptura" which means "Scripture alone." This communicates the simple idea that the Bible alone is the ultimate authority on all Scriptural matters.

If unforgiveness is in fact spiritual suicide, then why do so many people believe the lie that unforgiveness is beneficial? Our Scripture focus will be Matthew 6:14-15.
