468: Forgive as God forgave you | Colossians 3:13

This week, we are in Colossians 3 learning how to follow Jesus and live the Christian life. Yesterday, we learned we should live out compassion, kindness, and patience to others. But it doesn't stop there. Colossians 3:13 calls us to forgive others, even though it isn't easy. Paul uses the ultimate act of forgiveness as our example: Forgive as God forgave you. In the same way that God loved us, we would love others. In the same way God doesn't hold our past mistakes against us, so we should forgive others, as well.
