UNFORGIVING SPIRIT:THE WORST ENEMY.

The difference between man and other lower animals is man's ability to think higher than them (the other animals)Human beings are expected to live higher above all the living things on earth that's one of the reasons why our relationship with the creator is deeper than the other creatures.The intimate nature of our relationship with God has made it that He gave us some rules to observe in our lives.The greatest of all the commandments God gave us is to solidify our relationship with one another by stretching the band that holds us together.This simply put means to ensure that we be inn good terms with one another as we are with ourselves.It is natural that from time to time man deviate from the set rules that guides our relationship with our creator God and with our fellow human beings.
However that is not always the case owing to the fact that nobody born of a woman is perfect except Jesus Christ.As long as human beings breadth we must at times offend each other.Anyway this does not mean that we have to live reckless lives just because we have a reason to justify our misgivings.The holy book of God records it that nobody is a righteous, not even one.
We must learn to let go whatever be the bad feelings we develop from the unraisable behavior of our neighbors.Christ in his pilgrim life on earth set before his followers new testament rules that outweighs the old Mosaic law of tit for tat. He therefore urged His followers the Christians to be averagely peaceful in their life they live.He told them to return good for evil,water for fire,cold for heat instead of the opposites.When His disciples engaged Him with argument of the umber of times one can be offended before he recoils to retaliate.In His answer to their questions He told them that if anyone can pile up the sins of his neighbor up to seventy times seventy times then the person can retaliate.
Going by statistics it is not practically possible for one to continue piling up the wrong deeds of the other till it reaches up to that number.So the best thing to do in the very first place is just to forgive in the spirit of love. In another instance He was asked what His reaction would be like if someone walks up tom Him and unleashes a dirty slap on His face.He then finalized His teachings on forgiveness by charging then to show the next cheek. In our human reasoning moral theology say's if anyone slaps you instead of showing the next cheek,a better thing to do is just to leave the person and the place and run away.But in cases where the antagonist is not even ready to let the run then a decision of returning a harassing slap could be perfectly taken... to be continued latter.
