Luke 23:34
“Father, forgive these people,” Jesus said, “for they don’t know what they are doing.” And the soldiers gambled for his clothing, throwing dice for each piece.

I know I can read and have read and misunderstood a lot, and have got my mind changed by God personally in me. I used to go to others that I thought knew more or better than me, these became my mentor
Until I heard in me "I" GOD, just love you, God know is my mentor only.
I replied what?????????????
Then I saw from God "I" am forgiven by God through Son's done work on that cross, reconciled. That floored me, when I replied but!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just did what I do not want to do again, I do not want to do that, Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was not until I saw and stood in being forgiven by God through Son, that I started seeing new and stopping my stupid ignorance in trying to not do sin, "I" sinned all the more under Law than when I wasn't under it. I was one day not sinning (thinking it) and saw it in amazing thanksgiving and praise, yet I got proud in it. Saw it was me doing it, not God through me. So I was trapped in Guilt and pride guilt in not doing it, pride in doing it, which is flesh nature working it out, that no one can do perfect, but Son Jesus that did it for us once on that cross, this is done for new life to begin in us, those that believe he took away sin, then got risen and is ready to give new life to us and be new in trust, not of any self works to do ever again. Only God's done work of Son through us, at least me, anyone else?
to settle this, I am forgiven by God period, by others not unless I do as they say to do or be as one of them
We the people of first birth love those that love us back, we do not love those that we do not see as loving us
What a perplexity
In the old, it was said an eye for an eye, today feed, not destroy
Thanks as we each grow new in this love and mercy of Son to Father given us to be new, and simply love all as called, even the enemies, thank you

“And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?

Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like: he is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.


But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭6:46-49‬ ‭KJV‬‬


Im Glad Jesus loves us and told people the truth

“Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.

But be ye doers of the word,

and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.”
‭‭James‬ ‭1:21-22‬ ‭
