Luke 17:3-4 ties forgiveness to repentance: “If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him…and if he sins against you seven times in the day, and turns to you seven times, saying, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.” So, is repentance a condition for forgiveness, or should we forgive people unconditionally? Unfortunately, scholars don’t agree. There are two groups:
—One group says forgive whether people repent or not. This is known as unconditional forgiveness.
—Another group says forgive if people repent. This is known as conditional forgiveness. I am in this camp.

He is risen!
In Luke 24:1-6, the empty tomb and the resurrection of Jesus declare Christ’s victory over sin and death. Don’t seek life among the dead. Life is found only in the risen Lord Jesus.

What does it mean to have wisdom according to Scripture?
In this sermon and companion blog post, I look at what Proverbs teaches about wisdom and foolishness. Biblical wisdom is more than knowledge or life experience. It begins with fearing the Lord and is revealed in the way we live.
This message is for anyone who wants to make decisions with discernment, resist foolishness, and grow in godliness.
