 Blue Onxy'd It Out  v16-18 Ch 29 Deu

 You yourselves know how we lived...how we passed through...detestable images...idols of wood & stone, of silver and gold...make sure there is no root among you that produces bitter poison.

Pro 14:10  the heart knows it's own bitterness (H#4751)

Simon had this problem being poisoned by bitterness (G#4088) & bound by iniquity (Acts 8:23)

G#4089  But if you have bitter envy & self-seeking in your hearts...
(Jm 3:14)

H#4751 mar or marah - bitter (-ness, -ly), + angry, discontented, heavy.
G#4088 pikria - from 4089, acridity (espec. poison): -bitterness.
G#4089 pikros - sharp (pungent - affecting the mind or feelings so as to cause pain {pungent sarcasm}), acrid, bitter.

Bitterness is self induced misery.  Its fruit = anger, slander, hate, the desire to injure another person.

Forgiveness fixes bitterness.

          I Found Jesus
 Forgiveness: to excuse an offense or to pass over a fault without demanding punishment.

     Jesus You Are My Best Friend
