"Be Kind And Forgiving" from Matthew 18:15-35

Have You forgiven someone who hurt you?

If yes, is that a sincere forgiveness?

If it's you're brother or sister (in Christ) keep the matter private and approach to show him his fault. If you can't keep your mouth shut. Ask God for help. The new generation is to post thier problem in the facebook status. Does posting to social networking site will solve your problems?
Talk to her/him immediately.

Leviticus 19:17-18
“‘Do not hate a fellow Israelite in your heart. Rebuke your neighbor frankly so you will not share in their guilt. “‘Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against anyone among your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD.

2 Corinthians 4:1 Therefore, since through God’s mercy we have this ministry, we do not lose heart.


Do not overcome evil with evil but overcome evil with good.

2 Thesalonians 3:15 15 Yet do not regard them as an enemy, but warn them as you would a fellow believer.



  • Keep the matter private.

  • Ask Help from other believers.

  • If he/she doesn't believe treat him as a pagan do not associate with him but do not hate him as an enemy.



Verse 18: settle the matters within the church not on the court or asking help to the unbelievers.

Forgiveness should be boundless. It is not about times, plus, not about counting the sins of other people.

You would say "I can forgive but will never listen to that person" do you want God to treat you that way?

Get rid of all bitterness. Because if you just know and experience all the forgiveness from God and accept Him then you will know how to forgive.
What's is the point of God's power if you don't ask help?
Observe the children they don't get bitter and easily forgive and then play together again.

Some of the most miserable people are those who doesn't know how to forgive as they are only punishing themselves.

Unless you forgive your brother from your heart, God will not do the same.

Revelation 2:23 I will strike her children dead. Then all the churches will know that I am he who searches hearts and minds, and I will repay each of you according to your deeds.


Remember
Ephesians 4:32 Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.


Pastor's Message
Ezra 3:11 With praise and thanksgiving they sang to the LORD: "HE is good; HIS love to Israel endures forever." And all the people have a great shout of praise to the LORD, because the foundation of the house of the LORD was laid.

God is indeed truthful to His promises and faithful to our prayers. For If bestowed this sanctuary to us when we desperately need a place to fellowship and His timing was so perfect. Great is our God and forever I am thankful for His love and His provision. As we celebrate God's goodness today may we keep on thanking Him now and forever. Thanksgiving belongs to our Lord Jesus Christ.
Nice Christian Life Experiences~~~

Notes from Mark 13:14-27

Mark 13:14-27 New International Version (NIV) 14 “When you see ‘the abomination that causes desolation’[a] standing where it[b] does not belong—let the reader understand—then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 15 Let no one on the housetop go down or enter the house to take anything out. 16 Let no one in the field go back to get their cloak. 17 How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! 18 Pray that this will not take place in winter, 19 because those will be days of distress unequaled from the beginning, when God created the world, until now—and never to be equaled again. 20 “If the Lord had not cut short those days, no one would survive. But for the sake of the elect, whom he has chosen, he has shortened them. 21 At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘Look, there he is!’ do not believe it. 22 For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even

Mark 13:32-37

Mark 13:32-37 New International Version (NIV) The Day and Hour Unknown 32 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 33 Be on guard! Be alert[a]! You do not know when that time will come. 34 It’s like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants in charge, each with their assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch. 35 “Therefore keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will come back—whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or at dawn. 36 If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping. 37 What I say to you, I say to everyone: ‘Watch!’”
