Bible Question (short): If we don't forgive,not forgiven by us? |
Question (full): Does this scripture really mean “Whenever you forgive sins, they are forgiven. Whenever you don't forgive them, they are not forgiven.” Is the scripture saying we can forgive sin when the holy spirit is in dwelling or upon us? Can we forgive sin or what is deemed trepasses and how does Matt. 6:14 come into play "For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you." |
