FORGIVE AND FORGET WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY

forgive and forget simply means making peace with those who wrongly offend you. If our fellow human hurts us we feel like to revenge because we feel the pain, but the bible calls us to forgive and forget for peace to reign. We have to forgive because God also forgive us when we commit sin.

Ephesians 4:32, it says, “Be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.” .

During the time of Jesus Christ he talks more on love as it is the greatest commandment. He saide we should love our neighbours in that case we should forgive them whenever they offend us even is seventy times a day. This means forgiveness should be continuous and sincere, not counted or measured.

From the new testament the bible talks a lot about forgiveness. While forgetting may not mean erasing memory, it means choosing not to hold the offense against someone. Forgive as God forgives you fully, freely, and with love.
