Like other characteristics of God, forgiveness has several layers that range from very simple to very complex. That is why God speaks of both the milk of the word and the meat of the word. As we examine the spiritual characteristic of forgiveness, most often, it is not a simple or easy characteristic of God to understand or implement. We're trying to see the quality of sincerity in forgiveness; the expression of singleness of purpose or motivation of forgiveness; the sincerity of forgiveness in the heart, and the desire of the heart to seek forgiveness. This is not a trivial subject, but one that the people of God should endeavor to understand and implement God's way.
