Be ye kind one to another

Good morning.....hope this is a great weekend for you all. God is good all the time, and all the time God is good!!!
Ephesians 4:32 "AND BE YE KIND ONE TO ANOTHER, TENDERHEARTED, FORGIVING ONE ANOTHER, EVEN AS GOD FOR CHRIST'S SAKE HATH FORGIVEN YOU."
Life Application Study Bible ""INSTEAD, BE KIND TO EACH OTHER, TENDERHEARTED, FORGIVING ONE ANOTHER, JUST AS GOD THROUGH CHRIST HAS FORGIVEN YOU."
Okay,
'be ye kind'- well disposed, useful, benevolet, gracious and gentle mannered.
Tenderhearted- merciful compassionate, pitiful, a willingness to be understanding and patient with the faults and failures of others.
Forgiving one another- forgive -Gr. charizomai- is built on the same root as the word grace and means to bestow favor unconditionally. This means that a Christian will always treat the offending party graciously, letting the wrong go without any claim for punishment or reparation. Pardoning the guilty person instead of displaying resentment or exercising retaliation.
Even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you - we are to forgive others just as God forgave us. We are to exhibit the life of Christ in and through us, thus giving evidenve of having been made partakers of the divine nature.
God's forgiveness is free, full and final. When God forgives, He forgets, so must we......Do You??????
Thank you for reading. Love you all.
In Christ's Love and Grace
Johnny
