Forgiveness in the Home: Forgiving your Child By Pastor and Mrs Chifamba OUR CHILDREN LIKE US MAKE MISTAKES! WE MUST LOVING AND FORGIVING TO THEM WHEN THEY ERR Ephesians 4:32 And be you kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake has forgiven you. Colossians 3:21 Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged. Matthew 6:14-25 For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: 15But if you forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. BECAUSE OF INHERITED TENDENCIES TO SIN OUR CHILDREN STRUGGLE JUST LIKE WE ALSO DO Psalm 51:5 Behold, I was shaped in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. Romans 7: 14-16 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. 15For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. 16If then I do that which I would not, I consent to the law that it is good. Psalm 103:10-14 He has not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. 11For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him. 12As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us. 13Like as a father pities his children, so the LORD pities them that fear him. 14For he knows our frame; he remembers that we are dust. REMEMBER YOU WERE ONCE A CHILD 1 Corinthians 13:7 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. Psalm 25:7 Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness' sake, O LORD. THE FATHER OF THE PRODIGAL SON IS AN OUTSTANDING EXAMPLE TO ALL PARENTS Luke 15:18-24 I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before you, 19And am no more worthy to be called your son: make me as one of your hired servants. 20And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him. 21And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in your sight, and am no more worthy to be called your son. 22But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet: 23And bring here the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry: 24For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry. BRING YOUR CHILDREN TO JESUS Matthew 19:14-15 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come to me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven. 15And he laid his hands on them, and departed there. Mark 9:16-17 And he asked the scribes, What question ye with them? 17And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit Mark 9:21-24 And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child. 22And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us. 23Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. 24And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief. John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
