Wonderfully inspiring article! I am so lucky to be married (44 years and counting) who constantly forgives me, easily and often. I will try and be better as inspired by your words.

Great contrast to how the world thinks we move past difficulties with others, and how the Lord would have us be healed. Thanks for the insight.

I don't think God is actually saying that refusal to forgive is of a greater magnitude than whatever sin we are not forgiving. His words are, 'There remaineth in him the greater sin,' as opposed to, 'He is committing the greater sin.' Remain is the important word.
He's saying that, after those who offend us have repented and moved on, if we are still hung up on what they did, then we are the ones who now have the greater problem.
