Lesson 1&2 What is forgiveness? WORKSHEET 3 Christian beliefs about forgiveness Jesus’ example Look at each of the ways Jesus behaves below and in the right hand column write a list of instructions for Christians today to follow if they want to behave like Jesus. …they crucified him there and the two criminals also, 1. one on the right, the other on the left. Jesus said, “Father, forgive them; they do not know what they are doing.” (Luke 23:33-34) One of the criminals hanging there abused him. “Are 2. you not the Christ? Save yourself and us as well.” But the other spoke up and said “Have you no fear of God at all?” he said. “You got the same sentence as he did but in our case we deserved it; we are paying for what we did. But this man has done nothing wrong. Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.” “Indeed, I promise you, today you will be with me in paradise.” (Luke 23:39-43) Then Peter went up to him and said, “Lord, how often 3. must I forgive my brother if he wrongs me? As often as seven times?” Jesus answered, “Not seven, I tell you, but seventy-seven times.” (Luke 18:21-22) “Neither do I condemn you. Go away and don’t sin 4. anymore.” (John 8:11) St Paul’s teaching Look at the advice St Paul gives to Christians and use them to add to your list of instructions above for modern day Christians “Never have grudges against others, or lose your 5. temper, or raise your voice to anybody, or call each other names, or allow any sort of spitefulness. Be friends with one another, and kind, forgiving each other as readily as God forgave you in Christ.” (Ephesians 4: 31-32) “You are God’s chosen race, his saints; he loves you, 6. and you should be clothed in sincere compassion, in kindness and humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with one another; forgive each other as soon as a quarrel begins. The Lord has forgiven you; now you must do the same.” (Colossians 3:12-114) Now give as many reasons as you can why Christians believe they should always forgive others no matter what they have done. Use the scripture passages above to support your answer. DIOCESE OF HEXHAM AND NEWCASTLE KEY STAGE 3 UNIT 6 ARE THERE LIMITS ON FORGIVENESS? 3. When is sorry good enough? When is it not?
