Reconciliation and Forgiveness in the Bible
Reconciliation and forgiveness can be challenging for most of us. So what instruction does the Bible give us concerning these two things.
Reconciliation
The Mystery of Christ – Ephesians 3:1-13
And the mystery is not only that the barrier that separated Jews from Gentiles has been eliminated. But also that the need for a priestly intermediary has been removed. All believers now also serve as priests and each have direct access to the throne of God.
If You Hold Anything Against Anyone – Mark 11:25
Hurt in inevitable in our lives. People will hurt us, whether intentionally or not. But when we hold onto the hurt, we are the ones who suffer, not the one who hurt us. If you hold anything against anyone who has hurt you, forgive them so that you can be freed from the hurt, and enjoy fellowship with God.
