In this week's sermon, Pastor John talks about the real meaning of forgiveness and how it often gets mixed up with reconciliation. He reminds us that everyone has been hurt by others, just like everyone has hurt others at some point. We learn that forgiving someone doesn't mean we forget the hurt or ignore it, but it means letting go of our own judgment and giving it to God. Pastor John shares that God forgives us through Jesus' sacrifice and expects us to forgive others in return. Forgiving helps pave the way for reconciliation, which requires genuine repentance from the person who hurt us. The main takeaway? Let go, let God, and do good, trusting God to handle justice in His time.
