Giving Forgiveness

“Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”(Luke 6:37-38 ESV)
We would rather judge and condemn than pardon. Like everything else Jesus is saying in this chapter, we are to act and react contrary to our sinful nature. We want to make others look bad so we look good. How do we show we have moved from judgment and condemnation to forgiveness? When we give.
