Relationships

Josimar Salum



All humans are inclined to measure people by their weaknesses and judge them by their momentary words and actions. God who always sees the heart teaches us to know others by their fruits. We judge everything by disconnected events. We maintain our relationships by selfish interest. Being a true friend is to stop judging, remain faithful where others give up and is to relate solely with the simple desire to be a friend, whatever the cost, and this only happens when the other person correspond the same way.

Forgiveness is a big loss, conscious, definitive, freeing, to finish off the pain. Who forgives first absolves himself.




Someone that is called brother in Christ doesn't want to talk to someone else that is called a brother too. Among pastors and leaders this is common. Forgiveness now doesn't mean reconciliation, much less restoration. I see this all over within what we call church. The Holy Spirit calls hatred this behavior. Who practices it may be called Christian but he was never been born again, he still remains a enemy of God and His wrath remains over his head. The greatest deceptiveness among Christians is assuring themselves they are saved while they are not.
