I think it is outrageous to get in the face of another and demand forgiveness for something you have done over and over again. Saying 'You HAVE to forgive me.' is a base way to understand the concept of forgiveness. If a person states 'you have to forgive me' that underscores the fact they KNOW they have transgressed. Obviously I am taking this beyond the current childish exchange here.
We also have 'you cannot judge; the Bible says we must not judge' more baloney because you had better judge whether or not a person acted out of character or has a habit of doing whatever it is that begs judgement.
Do we forgive, for example, the pastor who has had a series of affairs but then just allow him to continue from the pulpit because we cannot judge his actions and determine that he is not a safe man?
The fruit of these wicked and deceitful actions and ignoring of actual scriptures that tell us exactly which way is up, is a dead and burdensome religion that benefits no one but perpetrators of the snares. Whether or not people know it, they are creating a little god in their own image who helps those who help themself and excuses sin because we are all human but forgiveness is divine.
Well you cannot abolish God's law and He cannot accept sin so that is where Jesus fills the gap. But He did not abolish anything.
Jesus fulfilled the requirement of failure to keep the law in our stead which does not grant us a no worries sin card but it does not require we keep the law as so many seem to be tripping over these days.
We can only be righteous through Christ and presenting our own 'righteousness' as participation in our salvation does make it our salvation but that honestly just seems to be out of the reach for so many and this forum presents that fact fully and without reservation.
Well I guess that's enough
