Bible Quotes |
Let the wicked
forsake his way, and the
unrighteous man his thoughts: and
let him return unto the Lord, and
he will have mercy upon him; and
to our God, for he will abundantly
pardon.
(Isaiah 55:7)
But I say unto
you, love your enemies, bless them
that curse you, do good to them
that hate you, and pray for them
which despitefully use you, and
persecute you; That ye may be the
children of your Father which is
in heaven: for he maketh his sun
to rise on the evil and on the
good, and sendeth rain on the just
and on the unjust.
(Matthew 5:44,45)
For
if ye forgive men their
trespasses, your heavenly Father
will also forgive you:
But if ye forgive not men their
trespasses, neither will your
Father forgive your trespasses.
(Matthew 6:14,15)
Then came Peter to him, and
said, Lord, how oft shall my
brother sin against me, and I
forgive him? till seven times?
Jesus saith unto him, I say
not unto thee, Until seven times:
but, Until seventy times seven.
(Matthew 18:21,22)
But love ye your enemies, and do
good, and lend, hoping for nothing
again; and your reward shall be
great, and ye shall be the
children of the Highest: for he is
kind unto the unthankful and to
the evil. Be ye therefore
merciful, as your Father also is
merciful. Judge not, and ye shall
not be judged: condemn not, and ye
shall not be condemned: forgive,
and ye shall be forgiven:
(Luke 6:35-37)
Take heed to yourselves: If
thy brother trespass against thee,
rebuke him; and if he repent,
forgive him.
(Luke 17:3)
Forbearing one another, and
forgiving one another, if any man
have a quarrel against any: even
as Christ forgave you, so also do
ye.
(Colossians 3:13)
