Frederick William Robertson Quotes

Forgiveness should go hand-in-hand with love.

We pardon to the extent that we love.

Love is sometimes shown in the things you don't say, don't keep track of and don't notice. The greatest kindness is often shown in letting things go. None of us is perfect, but we can all be perfect friends and perfect partners by allowing those that we love to be imperfect. Give those around you the 'break' that you hope the world will give you on your own 'bad day' and you'll never, ever regret it.

We pardon as long as we love.

Charity is having patience with someone who has let us down. It is resisting the impulse to become offended easily. It is accepting weaknesses and shortcomings. It is accepting people as they truly are. It is looking beyond physical appearances to attributes that will not dim through time. It is resisting the impulse to categorize others.

Lasting love extends grace. No relationship will make it without grace. The Bible tells us that this is part of love. You're not going to have a relationship unless you have forgiveness, mercy, patience, acceptance, grace. You've got to cut people some slack.

We all need grace in the face of each other.

When people realize that they have been forgiven of everything, it becomes a little bit easier for them to forgive others.

People who truly love us can be divided into two categories: those who understand us, and those who forgive us our worst sins. Rarely do you find someone capable of both.

Those who do not love me do not deserve to live.

There is no love without forgiveness, and there is no forgiveness without love.

One forgives to the degree that one loves.

The basis of Christianity is loving people and not judgment.

Love those you hate you.
