The Holy spirit is an immortal person that dwells in the lives of every believer on earth. The Holy Spirit is the third in
person after Jesus Christ(the son of God). It is pertinent to know that every child of God has the holy spirit dwelling in
them. As Christians, we converse with the holy spirit daily such that He counsels us, comforts us, guides us and above all
teaches and inspires us about God’s word.

to fall into temptations.

TOPIC: FORGIVENESS
TEXT: MATTHEW 18:23-35
INTRODUCTION
Forgiveness is the act of pardoning an offender. In the Bible, the Greek word translated “forgiveness” literally
means “to let go,” as when a person does not demand payment for a debt. Jesus used this comparison when he taught his
followers to pray: “Forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive everyone who is in debt to us.” (Luke 11:4)
Likewise, in his parable of the unmerciful slave, Jesus equated forgiveness with canceling a debt.—Matthew 18:23-35.
We forgive others when we let go of resentment and give up any claim to be compensated for the hurt or loss we
have suffered. The Bible teaches that unselfish love is the basis for true forgiveness, since love “does not keep account
of the injury.”—1 Corinthians 13:4, 5.

4. BIBLICAL EXAMPLES OF PEOPLE WHO ASKED FOR FORGIVENESS
Forgiveness can be defined as the readiness of an individual who has been erred to have mercy. Jesus Christ, while on
earth has described what it entails to forgive or have a forgiven heart. Hence, as true believers and hearers of God’s
word, we are expected to forgive others when we are being offended, and by so doing we tend to be obedient children of
God’s word and can enjoy the fullness of God’s blessings.
(a) Always remember that you are forgiven by God. Matthew 6:14
(b) Understand the word of God about forgiveness. Matthew 6:12, 14-15
(c) Recognize the benefits of forgiving. Matthew 6:14, 15.
(d) Be empathetic. All of us are imperfect. (James 3:2) Just as we appreciate being forgiven, we should likewise forgive
the mistakes of others.—Matthew 7:12.
CONCLUSION
God instructs us all to forgive those who errs us, because he has forgiven us. Forgiving a person who has hurt you
so deep doesn’t mean you trust them. Rather, it means you trust God and willing to abide by his word.
INTRODUCTION
A genuine believer must be cautious of what he says be it in public or private. As matured Christians, we are
expected to control our tongue, for it shows the measurement of our maturity against the standard of our
master(Jesus Christ). For instance and in reality, when a patient visits the doctor for a health complaints, one of the
things he examines is the individual’s tongue. So, by looking at your tongue, a doctor can tell a great deal about
your physical condition. Similarly, by one’s speech, we learn quite a bit about a person’s spiritual condition as well.
TOPIC OUTLINES
The tongue is a part in the mouth that aids mans speech. The bridling of the tongue means
controlling our tongue towards our inter-personal relationship with God and man daily. Many a
times, out of provocation or excitement some Christians uses negative words on themselves and on
others at large, and as such bring God’s wrath upon themselves. Hence, every believer is urged to
bridle his/her tongue to enjoy God’s blessings. Pro 21:23

(d) Be submissive to the holy spirit.
(e) Be careful of the friends we keep. Proverbs 1:10
(f) Ask for forgiveness for any unloving words or attitudes.
(g) Cultivate using words that will encourage, comfort, edify and inspire people around you and the world at
large.
CONCLUSION
We should learn to bridle our tongue so as not to ruin our lives and that of others. Instead, we should cultivate the
habit of speaking graciously, using kind words as honey. Pro 16:24.
INTRODUCTION
Christians must subject their mind to perpetual renewal by consciously exposing it to healthy and edifying content,
always! There is no better tool for the accurate renewal of the believer’s mind than the word of God.
The mind of the man is a battleground of which every moral and spiritual battle is fought. The outward action of a
child of God is determined by a transformed mind whose inward spirit is rooted solely in the word of God.
