Forgive--Give
o you wish to
receive? Then give! Do you wish to be forgiven? Then forgive! This is just
a brief summary. Hear Christ say in another place, "forgive, and you
shall be forgiven."
Forgive; give. And you shall be given what you desire--eternal life.
-- Sermon 64, 5
Prayer. Forgive us, Lord, all these things in which we have been led astray. Help us to resist being led away.
-- Punishment and the Forgiveness of Sins 2, 4
