And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.<\/em> We will occasionally hear of a tragic event perpetrated by one person against another, whether intentionally or accidentally. The harm is so deep that the hurt party will say, \u201cI don\u2019t think I can ever forgive that person!\u201d Humanly speaking, we can understand how pain can motivate such a reaction, but there is no biblical justification for it. The Bible clearly teaches that there are to be no limits\u2014no exceptions\u2014to our forgiveness of others (Matthew 18:21-22).<\/p>\n Because of a statement Jesus made to religious leaders in His day, some people think there is a sin so grievous that God will not forgive them. That is, they wonder if there is an unpardonable sin in God\u2019s eyes. Yes, Jesus said that blasphemy against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven (Matthew 12:31-32). But He was referring to people whose hearts were so hardened against God\u2019s revelations of Himself that there was no coming back. There is no unforgivable sin for those who want to be forgiven. \u201cThe blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin\u201d (1 John 1:7).<\/p>\n The standard for our forgiveness of others is the way God forgives us\u2014without exceptions (Ephesians 4:32).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.
