You have a new identity: “For you are all children of God through faith in Christ Jesus. And all who have been united with Christ in baptism have put on Christ, like putting on new clothes. There is no longer Jew or Gentile, slave or free, male and female. For you are all one in Christ Jesus. And now that you belong to Christ, you are the true children of Abraham.

It is a safe harbor of smooth waters protecting us from the storms of wrong actions. It frees us from bad thinking that leads to bad choices which, in turn, lead to a life of misery and trouble.

Most people in the body of Christ find the one another to forgive the most challenging of all. When we are hurt or wounded by others, our natural inclination is to “get even”. How are we to respond to the pain, sorrow, and wounds that have been afflicted upon us by others? It is of no surprise…
