Imitators of God

I don't know who said it first, but it is true: to return evil for evil is demonic. To return good for good is human. To return good for evil is divine.

This truth is at the heart of God's salvation program (Rom 5:6-8). As recipient's of this divine goodness, we should gladly forgive other's evil as God has forgiven our's (Eph 4:31-5:2). We can only do this if we see ourselves as "big time" forgiven.
