Hello to the whole community of the Steemchurch Apostolic Church through this message I want to leave a great message to all the brothers of the faith about the importance of forgiving the one who has offended you should know that You benefit greatly when you decide to forgive and the same It happens with everyone around you. Whether you need to forgive others, or the need to forgive yourself, doing so frees you from the past and allows you to fulfill your true potential. Forgiveness allows you to free yourself from limiting beliefs and attitudes. Release your mental and emotional energies so that you can apply them to the creation of a better life.

Forgiveness helps you achieve even your most practical and immediate goals. Maybe you want a better job, to earn more money, have better relationships, or live in a more pleasant place. Forgiveness helps you achieve all this. If you have not forgiven then, a part of your inner life energy is trapped in resentment, anger, pain or suffering of some kind. This trapped vital energy will limit you. It's like you're trying to ride a bike with the brakes partially on all the time. It slows you down, frustrates you and makes it difficult to move forward.

The decisions you make and the things you think are possible will all be influenced by the ways you have not forgiven. As you learn to forgive the energy that was going to sad thoughts and feelings get free and can flow to create the life you want instead of limiting yourself, or create more suffering.

If you do not want to learn to forgive yourself to benefit yourself; Then, learn to forgive so that you can benefit others. As you learn, you benefit everyone who is in contact with you. Your thinking will be clearer and more positive than before. You will have much more to give and more easily you will enjoy sharing what you have. You will naturally and easily become more kind, generous and more in solidarity with others, - without having to fight to achieve it. You will have a happier and more positive attitude with the people in your life and they will respond more positively to you in return.

We must forgive other men their offenses, otherwise the Father will not forgive ours:

Matthew 6: 14-15 "For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you; 15 But if you do not forgive men their offenses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. "

That passage is very important, often it happens that a person wants God to forgive her of his many faults, but that person is incapable of those who hurt him, let's see the excellent explanation that Jesus gives us on this point, first Peter asks How many times must we forgive:

Matthew 18: 21-35 "Then Peter came to him and said, Lord, how many times will I forgive my brother who sins against me? Up to seven? 22 Jesus said to him, "I do not tell you until seven, but even up to seventy times seven."
