Introduction:

I. Vertical vs Horizontal Forgiveness

II. Graciously Endure Your Brother/Sister's Sin (Col 3:13; Prov 10:12; Phil 4:8)

III. Entrust to God the Sanctification of Your Brother/Sister (Col 3:12-16; Phil 1:6)

IV. Draw Power from God's Forgiveness Given to You (Col 3:13)

Questions for Reflection

Do you hold any grudges against someone else?
What are some ways that you can graciously endure the sins of those closest to you (e.g., spouse, sibling, parent, friend)?
What do you need to do to fight bitterness when seeking an attitude of forgiveness toward those who repeat their sin or show no repentance?
