The more free mercies are, the more acceptable they should be to us, and we should be more thankful for them to God.72FORGIVE ME NOT.—It would be singular indeed for poor, helpless, erring and sinful mortals to pray thus; nevertheless many do, in effect, pray this prayer. All do it who do not forgive those who trespass against them, and pray the Lord's prayer; for it says, Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. The spirit of the prayer of such revengeful unforgiving ones is, O Lord, forgive me not; for I do not forgive those who trespass against me! "If ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses."—Matt. vi, 15.
