| VICTORY THROUGH FORGIVENESS SEMINAR One of the most insidiously effective tools that Satan uses to defeat believers, as well as everyone else for that matter, is bitterness and unforgiveness. On the other hand, bitterness and unforgiveness are integral to our very being and they are the natural response to hurt, injustice and inequity. In Hebrews 12:15, we read: "See to it that no one comes short of the grace of God; that no root of bitterness springing up causes trouble, and by it many be defiled." The "root of bitterness" that springs up in our lives will poison and defile not only us, but it will actually defile the very ones we love the most, and the person toward whom our anger and unforgiveness is aimed is not affected at all. This is the true nature of unforgiveness and its destructiveness that permeates every facet of our lives. Another very interesting aspect of bitterness is that as an emotional and spiritual poison in our lives, it will exploit that area or areas where we are the most vulnerable and susceptible to temptation and sin. In fact, you probably wouldn’t even connect those areas of deep struggle in your life with the bitterness that accompanies unforgiveness, but not only are they connected, they are quite often directly linked! Therefore, to walk in forgiveness is to walk in victory and freedom from enslaving attitudes and passions that debilitate and cripple our lives, as well as those we love the most. This is a ten-hour seminar, and the following topics are what we will look at: 1. Forgiveness: The Cornerstone to Spiritual Peace and Victory - - - Hebrews 12:14 2. The Effects of Unforgiveness - Hebrews 12:15 3. The Beginning Steps Toward Forgiveness - Ephesians 4:31-32 4. The Lifestyle of Forgiveness - Matthew 18:21-35 5. The Practice of Walking in Forgiveness - Romans 12:14-21 6. The Discipline of Forgiveness - Ephesians 4:26-27 7. The Practical Implementation of Forgiveness - Colossians 3:12-17 If this seminar is something you believe might be beneficial to your sheep, please contact me, and I will be more than happy to work out a time frame for teaching it to your congregation. As with the above ten hour seminars, the typical approach is either a weekend setting, or a five or ten week time period, for two hours or one hour per night, one night a week respectively. Janie and I would be honored to serve you in any way we can. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us, and may the Lord continue to bless you in every way.
