Pastor John MacArthur begins this book by examining the doctrine of the atonement, which is the basis for any teaching on forgiveness. Then he presents strong biblical principles of forgiveness, answering some common questions such as: Why are we supposed to seek God’s forgiveness if he has already justified us? How should we handle repeat offenses against us? When is restitution appropriate?
There are few concepts more basic to Christianity- or more important to a Christian’s personal and spiritual well-being- than forgiveness. Yet in an age in which it has become fashionable to ’’forgive yourself’’ rather than to forgive others, can our modern ways of understanding guilt, blame, mercy, and justice be reconciled with the gospel of Christ?
