ON FORGIVENESS
In order to truly forgive someone we must love them. The depth to which we will forgive someone is in direct proportion to our knowledge and understanding of how far and deep Love can go to cancel the offences we commit in the dark.

It's critically important to recognize that forgiveness in and of itself does not depend on our emotions or reasoning skills. Just as Truth is beyond the dictates of our reason so forgiveness is beyond our limitations and expectations. We are not the source of forgiveness. A spirit, soul, and body that absolutley surrenders themselves into the Light of Truth will, however, become a part of its source. Because a person living in the Light of Truth has experienced forgiveness for everything they have done in the dark, no matter how serious the action or thought, they are now capable to lovingly forgive in the same Spirit and to the same unfathomable depths. Those who have come to know Love personally realize they have been forgiven in a way that flips their inevitable eternity upside down. Instead of eternal death fueled by unforgiveness and pride it has become eternal life fueled by love, forgiveness and humility.

The forgiveness that is found in the Light of Truth is born out of an unconditional love that defies our reason. As a result, we cannot grasp Love totally, but we can know Love and be Love to those around us. If you haven't done so already step into the Light where the Truth will expose all you have ever done in the dark. Then receive the forgiveness that is offered in Love.

Who defines Love? Who defines Light? Who defines Truth? Who defines the Way? Who defines Life? Who defines Humility? Who Surrendered Everything? Who has the power to Forgive?

The only Name under heaven by which men will be saved!
