Pastor Murray, thank you for your wonderful instruction! I have a question out my religious covert narcissist dad. I care much for his well being but many days I battle my sanity with him. He claimed to speak and get visions from Jesus, however mom and I feel he may be demon possessed. I’m search for spiritual direction on this for him, my mom, and I. We live in Phoenix,AZ. If possible, I’d love to chat with you personally on this matter if you’re open to that. Thanks for your consideration. Neal
unsure of which scripture, but arent we called to forgive a brother/sister in Christ if they do something wrong against you and are truly repentant? so not f necessarily having to be forgiving of a secular person who robs your house etc... am I correct?
I feel like forgiveness is a thing that we should offer everyone, regardless of what they believe. Biblically I think there are many places where you can see this. Now I'm not an expert on scripture so I don't know any examples off the top of my head but I'm absolutely sure you can find somewhere in the Bible where Jesus forgives even an unbelieving person. Jesus died for everyone's sins, loves everyone, and shows mercy to everyone. I think that means our forgiveness should extend towards anyone we encounter in our lives.
@@izounokuda5461 oh yes, i agree, it is.. and is something i need to work on, along with so many other things, but forgiveness, that is hard... esp when it is a gross injustice, perpetuated by a non believer, I guess one just has to hand it over to God to deal with :D
@@BranchTogether Some examples What does God say about XYZ? Who is God's Favorite People and Why? How does God view divorce? Who is Jesus For? Is a fantastic title
Thanks for the feedback! We do occasionally do videos like that, but our primary focus is to go through the text section by section and see what God teaches us. We do have some videos planned that are closer to what you are asking. Thanks!

Forgiveness is not for the other person. Forgiveness is about your own heart.
