What TRUE Forgiveness Looks Like | Isaac Gross

One of the greatest obstacles to spiritual freedom isn't what happened to you—it's what you refuse to release.In this message, “Where Are You With… Forgiveness? // How Good Are You at Forgiving?”, we explore why forgiveness is one of the clearest marks of spiritual maturity and one of the most powerful acts of obedience in the Christian life.Unforgiveness doesn't just affect your relationships—it opens the door to bitterness, blinds your heart, and keeps you from experiencing the freedom God desires for you.In this sermon, you'll hear about:Why forgiveness is essential for every follower of JesusWhat forgiveness is—and what it is notHow unforgiveness gives the enemy an opportunity to work in our livesWhy forgiveness is a daily choice, not just a one-time decisionHow to forgive fast, fully, frequently, and freelyThrough passages from Matthew 18, Hebrews 12, Romans 12, Ephesians 4, Colossians 2, and more, this message reveals that forgiveness isn't about approving what happened or pretending the hurt didn't exist—it's about releasing the offender and trusting God with justice.Because you never look more like Jesus than when you forgive the way He forgave you.The more deeply you understand the forgiveness you've received from Christ, the more freely you'll extend that same forgiveness to others.The question isn't whether you've been hurt.The question is:Where are you with forgiveness?
