Matthew 6:14-15 NKJV, “For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
The Lord is looking for those who are truly willing to do His will and to be more like him. A parent of the Most High’s divine nature is having the willingness to forgive those who have a pure heart, and want to be forgiven for their transgressions. This is such a core element of the Gospel message that refusing to do so can jeopardize our own salvation. So why is forgiveness so important, because this is a true reflection of what the Gospel is.
No matter the sin, we are forgiven! No matter what we have done, we can be forgiven, no matter the heartache we have caused or received, we have to forgive like our Heavenly Father. I know our human nature can cause a delay in forgiveness especially for major transgressions but we cannot allow our hate to override the Gospel of Jesus Christ. In such cases we need only to ask for the grace of the Holy Spirit to renew a clean spirit (Psalm 51:10-12) within us, in order to do His will.
I always remember that the Cross of Christ covers a multitude of sins (1 Peter 4:8). So if the Most High can forgive those who truly with a pure heart ask for forgiveness, then we must as well submit to His divine will, Shalom.
