Q.
The Bible says in Matthew 6:15 that if you do not forgive others, then God will not forgive your transgressions. So, does that mean if a believer dies with an unforgiving spirit towards others, God will not forgive his sins – and he cannot enter heaven?
A.
‘I don’t think that’s what the verse means. However, if you want access to the power of God and if you want access to the anointing of His Holy Spirit, you must be in a constant state of being born again. And in order to be born again, you have to have your sins forgiven. Remember, Jesus said if you’re asking the heavenly Father to forgive you, you must have the same attitude in your heart towards others. This is an important thing. Otherwise, you will cut off the flow of God in your own life. I’m not in a position to speak on eternal judgment regarding whether you’ll go to hell or not. But I will say this: if you want to enjoy the privileges of His anointed children, you must forgive each and every person who wronged you. There’s no other way around it.
