Mercy in Heaven and on Earth
Matthew 6:12
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.


1. He who has not received the spirit of forgiveness has not truly received the gift of pardon.

2. Without this loving spirit we cannot truly worship God.

3. He who does not for give forsakes the spirit of the gospel, and returns to the spirit of legalism.

4. He who does not forgive will soon lose the sense and enjoyment of God's pardon.

5. He who does not forgive lacks one of the great evidences and confirmations of faith.
