We have been given a new life in Christ Jesus so that we can do works; so that we can repent; and so that we can forgive.
We can, and we should.
We do not forgive others based on whether we think they deserve it or not. We forgive because God forgave us when we were unforgivable! Take heed!
Don’t be the “other brother.”
Without the grace of God, we would all be left in utter darkness. The last thing we should ever do is judge someone harshly when they are seeking to repent and rehabilitate their lives.
Paul’s Fellows • Colossians 4:7-18 Part 2- Today’s episode of Triumphal will conclude our series on Paul’s Epistle to the Church at Colossae. We have seen in this letter that Jesus Christ has the superiority and preeminence in all things and that His church is the most important thing we have in this world. Therefore, we should devote our lives to serving Him by serving others. One of the best aides to fulfill this calling is to have brothers and sisters in Christ who have the same mind and goals for their lives. Paul mentions several of his “fellows” to remind us to look around ourselves a recognize the blessing of Christian friends we have in our lives.

God and His church rejoice when one of His children turns back to God and follows Jesus. We should reconcile our minds to this fact and rejoice as well.
Paul’s Fellows • Colossians 4:7-18 – In this concluding message from his series on Colossians, Elder Lowrance tells us about Paul’s companions in ministry. These men are “fellows” of all sorts. They are Fellow-Laborers, Fellow-Ministers, Fellow-Servants, and Fellow-Prisoners. These types of relationships are vital to proper church doctrine because FELLOWSHIP is the key that binds churches together.

This scene is one of the most remarkable expressions of God’s grace to be found in scripture.
The disciples thought the command to forgive was to difficult, so they asked for more faith. Jesus basically says you have the faith, use it. And in the end, just realize that you are only doing what you were told to do.
If we require more of another person than Christ required of us then we are asking too much.
