Forgive as You Go Quotes

“What a stink! As I was complaining about how bad it smelled in the bathroom, I said, “Why don’t these people flush as they go?” And when I sat down, the Lord began to talk to me. He said, just as it stinks in here, sin stinks in my nostrils. If people would flush as they go, there would hardly be any stink or build-up. In other words, if we would forgive as we go there would be no holding on to anger or to unforgiveness. We would be able to continue on in a way that is pleasing to the Lord in our relationships with others. One Scripture says, “Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath” (Ephesians 4:26). If we forgive others as we go, there would be no build-up.”

“What is forgiveness and why is it so important for us to forgive? Because God forgave us. From one man’s sin all sinned. but God sent his only begotten Son to die for us because He loved us.”
