No Unforgiveness or Offenses

The Bible commands us not to take up an offense for others and to forgive those who do us or others harm.

"You shall not take bear a grudge against the sons of your own people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the Lord." ~~ Leviticus 19:18

"A person's insight gives him patience, and his virtue is to overlook an offense"~~ Proverbs 19:11.

"It is an honor for a person to keep aloof from strife" ~~ Proverbs 20:3a.

“For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins” ~~ Matthew 6:15 (NIV).
