The Imperative to Forgive, by David Mitchell

In Matthew chapter 7, Jesus warns about judging others.

“Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

“Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye." -- Jesus Christ, recorded in Matthew 7:1-5

Today, Pastor David Mitchell expounds upon this teaching that Jesus gave his church -- the imperative to forgive.
