Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.” .. your post is absolutely dead-on. <br /><br />That's not an offhand remark Paul tossed out for us there, that's a command from God Himself.

Well said! So relevant!
You're spot on...Paul,<br /><br />Well said! So relevant!<br /><br />You're spot on with your description," more representative of the world system than they are the Kingdom of God", and the current importance of the matter.<br /><br />Something that has stuck in my mind for several years now,and is occasionally repeated in one form or another, is the fact that the gift of God's grace has a fruit of many flavors. <br /><br />The fruit is called GRACIOUSNESS, and its many are flavors described in Galatians 5:22.<br /><br />Another word for it is benignancy, which is often used to describe the kind and warm courtesy, pleasant and beneficial attitude of a king towards his subjects.<br /><br />Yours and my King is exactly that, and much more,towards us, I'm sure you will agree!<br /><br />How can recipients of His grace be otherwise towards each other?<br /> <br />Aussie Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16199918171163666399noreply@blogger.com
