HEALING RELATIONSHIPS THROUGH FORGIVENESS ACCEPTING GOD'S GRACE AND GIVING IT TO OTHERS A WORKBOOK COMPANION FOR PERSONAL STUDYThis workbook of the same name is designed to aid in your comprehension and application of the truths from the Scriptures which are explained in the book. It has a question and answer format because asking questions was a powerful teaching method that Jesus used to reveal God's divine truth. In His instruction to the people of God and others, the Lord asked over one hundred and thirty questions. Those mentioned in the gospels were only the recorded ones. We can only speculate as to how many questions He might have actually asked. The Lord Jesus Christ used His questioning techniques for the purpose of prompting His listeners to focus, understand, analyze, evaluate, and apply the divine principles He was proclaiming to them. The author has attempted to do the same in this workbook. May you find God's great wisdom as you ponder the answers to these questions. For group study, the comprehensive book that this workbook supports has been divided into three smaller books with accompanying workbooks. If you lead the group study, there is an instructor's manual with additional notes and the workbook questions with suggested answers from the text. For a quick read there is an abridged edition (A Book Short) which can also be purchased. This book discusses topics such as confession of sin, repentance of sin, forgiveness by God, self-forgiveness, forgiveness of others, accepting God's forgiveness, asking others for forgiveness, making restitution, accepting the consequences for our actions, confrontation of others who have sinned against us, forgiveness of others as we are forgiven, forgiveness of those forgiven, forgiveness of the lost, keeping no records of wrongs and sins against us, and restoring relationships through action. This can involve spouses in marriage, partners in dating, parents and children, friends, neighbors, co-workers, fellow students, acquaintances, and strangers. You are given Scriptural principles backed by bible verses. You will find many concepts about forgiveness that can be used as quotes. May you find healing for your relationships as you read.
