If you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.—Matt. 6:14. . . . . . . . . . . A willingness to forgive those who offend us—whether they are members of the Christian congregation or not—is essential if we are to maintain peaceful relations with family members, friends, fellow humans, and Jehovah. The Scriptures indicate that a willingness to forgive others regardless of how often they offend us is a Christian requirement. Jesus used an illustration about a slave who was forgiven a large debt by his master. When this slave would not likewise show mercy to a fellow slave who owed him a small amount, his master had him thrown into prison. (Matt. 18:21-34) Jesus’ conclusion was: “In like manner my heavenly Father will also deal with you if you do not forgive each one his brother from your hearts.” (Matt. 18:35) Hence, anyone who desires Jehovah’s friendship is obliged to forgive the shortcomings of his fellow human. w12 11/15 5:3-5 #DailyText #JW #ExaminingTheDailyScriptures WWW.JW.ORG
