Diligence
Romans 12:11, 20-21
“Bless those who persecute you, bless do not curse.” Romans
12:11
“Therefore, if your enemy is hungry, feed him, if he thirsts,
give him drink: for in doing so you shall heap coals of fire on his head.”
Romans 12:20-21
Heaping coals of fire suggests that by showing kindness
and forgiveness to an enemy, you can cause them to feel shame or guilt for
their actions, potentially prompting them to repent.
None of us are perfect and none of us will always agree
with each other. There will be disputes. God tells us that if we want
forgiveness for our sins, we must be willing to forgive others their
trespasses.
“Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed by your name. Give
us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive others
for their trespasses. Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For
thine is the kingdom, power, glory. Amen.”
Please read the scriptures listed, study
them, apply them to your life and grow in the saving relationship with Jesus
Christ our Savior.
