In this teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson focuses on what follows forgiveness, which we seek when we kneel before the Father after trespassing against Him.
As he takes us to the first of the passages in this teaching, Luke 23:33, we see Messiah Yeshua as He is being crucified by the hands of the Romans, crying out to His Father to forgive them…they don’t understand what they are doing. Can you do the same under much less circumstances?
Can your unforgiveness cause someone to stumble? Rabbi Berkson takes us to Luke 17 to find out. Is the definition of the word ‘forgive’ in this passage clear? Could you forgive someone who comes to you and repents seven times a day?
How does faith (emunah) work together with forgiveness? Rabbi Berkson shows us how from the event in Matthew chapter nine.
In Acts 5:30, Rabbi Berkson points out, through the apostle Peter’s words, how Yah’s forgiveness and repentance remove the consequences of sin.
In 2 Corinthians 5:16, Rabbi Berkson explains the apostle Paul’s idea that we should now look at forgiveness from a covenantal perspective. He says how much value the Father places upon you that He would send envoys to plead with you, reconcile with you, and restore you to favor.
