Forgive so that God Will Forgive You

1. Blessed are the merciful,  for they themselves shall receive mercy. (Mt. 5:7)

2. If you forgive others for the wrongs they have committed against you, your heavenly Father will forgive your sins also, but if you do not forgive others when they have offended you, your heavenly Father will not forgive your sins either. (Mt. 6:14-15)

3. If your brother has sinned  against  you,  go to him and make his wrong known in private, between you and him. If he listens to you, you will have gained a brother. Then Peter approached him and said, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he has sinned against me? Up to seven times?” Jesus answered  him, “I do not tell you up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven times.” (Mt. 18:15, 21-22)
