Mar 11:25 "And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses.
Mar 11:26 But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses."
Mar 16:16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.
(We seem to have a problem when we read God's word. When we read Mark 16:16 we know and except it to mean that we have to be baptized and have no problem with that. Jesus spoke this to us so we know that it is true. Why then do we have such a problem when Jesus tells us when we stand praying, that if we have anything against someone we are to forgive them. Two things Jesus tells us to do and we want to pick and choose what we want to do. If God's word tells us what to do we must do it.
Mathew 18:15 tells us what and how we are to handle this brother, we have forgiving him and then we go to him and tell him his wrongs that he has done to us. then if he ask God for forgiveness God will forgive his sin. we are not to tell everyone around us and let our brother find out from some one else, it is to come from us that we have something against him. God is the one who forgives sin. We can forgive a brother for what he did to us and we are commanded to do this, but God is the one who forgives sin. )
