What if we told you forgiveness was possible? What if the deepest betrayals could be dealt with here, today—right now? What if you could finally be free from torment?
Too often we think of forgiveness as some long process we need to go through before we can have peace. Nothing could be further from the truth. Actually, forgiveness is transactional. When someone wounds us, a debt is incurred. The payment required to make us whole again is staggering. And who pays? No amount of apologies or other forms of restitution from the offending party could ever cover the cost of their sin that wounded us. But there is good news! God has given us a strategy in His Word to help us live out Gospel-centric forgiveness. To truly forgive someone, we must look to the Cross where the blood of Jesus covers all sin, including the ones that wound us.
IF YOU CUT THE GOSPEL ANYWHERE, IT BLEEDS FORGIVENESS!
The message in this book is radical but it shouldn't be. It is a foundational teaching of Christian faith, but broadly ignored by most of us. In this book Bruce and Toni Hebel make the case that the root of the dysfunctions, addictions, hangups, strongholds, heartache, and torment plaguing many of us may be bitterness and the unwillingness to forgive those who have hurt us. The authors unpack simple principles coupled by real testimonies that highlight how true forgiveness is not a process but a heart choice and transaction with God - made possible by Jesus's death on the cross. If we have received God's forgiveness through Jesus, in turn God is calling us to forgive others. Years of counseling and a mountain of self-help books can't match the simple but transformative message presented here. Every Christian needs to read this!
