Lesson 11 | Experiencing Forgiveness

Most world religions include some concept of sin and a corresponding idea of repentance. One can be forgiven, but first one must change one’s attitude and clean up one’s life. Grace is available, but the individual must do something to receive it. Only in Christianity does the grace come before the potential receiver is even conscious of need. God’s forgiveness, as seen in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, is unconditional. Realizing that, how can we do otherwise for those who have wronged us?
