Forgiveness is key to unity and community. The difficulty is in forgiving those who won't forgive. We aren't just concerned with our own feelings, but with the welfare of the community, even the human race. The fight to "keep the unity of the Spirit" is never-ending because we are all inclined to differentiate and separate. Your comment reveals that you understand, because you perceive that the problem begins with "me". Thanks! This is so true Dave. Forgiveness is key to unity and community.
