Let your conversation be full of grace first, and then seasoned with salt (Colossians 4:6). May the Lord bless you.

Your problem is with The Holy Bible, in Matthew 6:14-15 it says your to forgive us [people] there trespasses [that is sins done on purpose, and in Verse 12 we are told God forgives YOU [debts are sins as that's what Jesus died to save you and me from] "AS" you forgive not because Jesus uses YOUR measuring stick so be carefull there with that 'ive had it' stuff, God is watching this stuff of yours free on line bible lessons www.amazingfacts.org OR www.itiswritten.com talk to me also wgr88@yahoo.com God bless
