This is really crucial. You need to pay attention.
Hell was prepared for the devil and his angels, but the devil is taking men there. And one of the primary tools he's using to take human beings there is unforgiveness. This is why we hear over and over again that if we cannot forgive, we will not be forgiven by our heavenly father. And there's a reason Jesus says this. It's because God put his nature in us. The Bible says the love of God was shed abroad in our heart by the Holy Spirit.
Which means the very same love that Jesus had on the cross that forgave us before we ever said I'm sorry. Because somebody says when they apologize, I'll forgive them. Well, what if Jesus would have waited for you to apologize? The kindness of God never would have led you to repentance. So he forgave you long before you ever said, "I'm sorry."
