What to Submit?
Forgiveness involves being willing and able to respond to what's happening in the present moment and not react through the lens of anger and resentment, the residue from the past.
Psychologists generally define forgiveness as a conscious, deliberate decision to release feelings of resentment or vengeance toward a person or group who has harmed you, regardless of whether they actually deserve your forgiveness.
Question: "If I do not forgive others, does that mean my sins are not forgiven? What does Matthew 6:14-15 mean?"
Answer: Matthew 6 does not teach that our eternal destiny is based on our forgiving other people; however, it does teach that our relationship with God will be damaged if we refuse to pardon those who have offended us. The Bible is clear that God pardons sin by His grace based on Christ’s work on the cross alone, not on man’s actions
