Hebrews 8:11 ,11 "And they shall not teach every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.",12 "For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more."

The power of the forgiveness God wants us to walk in is the kind that results in the treating of the least of our relationships as the greatest of our relationships because the power of sin that destroys relationships has been destroyed completely by the blood covenant of Jesus.\Heb 8:11-12 1Co 13:7-8 It doesn't take time for broken relationships to be fully restored but it takes our ability to walk in love and forget offences
