Christian Forgiveness

Why does Jesus place forgiveness as the foundation both of the obedient Christian spirit and of God’s plan for the reconciliation of humanity? In this groundbreaking study, Donald Algeo reveals the answer to both of these questions.

Beginning with an analysis of forgiveness in general, Algeo shows how Christian forgiveness in particular—forgiveness offered by Christians—represents an authority, a privilege, and a responsibility uniquely conferred upon his followers by Christ himself, and how its exercise by those followers is the singular method ordained by God for creating a heavenly kingdom on earth.

Written in an engaging style accessible to any and all who are interested in the deep things of God, Christian Forgiveness offers a refreshing and thought-provoking new understanding of one of the central pillars of Christian faith.
