They are forgiven... but they are alienating themselves from God in their minds ...much like the person that is staying away from you because of what they did to you....you have forgiven them...but they are not participating in it...not recognizing that you have forgiven them...come back you would say to them....all is well!!!
If in our relationships on earth...they are going to still have the ability to harm you...RUN Forrest RUN!!
Just throwin' some thoughts out there to ponder..

That's not the case. What if they still want to do you harm, do you still tell them "I forgive you"?
If so, forgiveness becomes meaningless.
