Does that mean we have to forgive someone even when they refuse to reconcile? First, the debts we owe one another are small change compared to the infinite debt we owe our heavenly Father. Because we have been forgiven an infinite debt, it is a horrendous evil to even consider withholding our forgiveness from those who seek it. Thus, we must always manifest the kind of love that is willing to forgive those who wrong us. Forgiveness is by definition a two-way street leading to the restoration of fellowship. It requires someone who is willing to forgive and someone who is wanting to be forgiven. If you are to forgive me, I must be repentant; otherwise, there can be no restoration of fellowship (i.e., forgiveness). Finally, we must never suppose that our standard of forgiveness is higher than God’s standard. He objectively offers us forgiveness and the restoration of fellowship with Him. We do not subjectively realize His forgiveness, however, until we repent (Luke 6:37–38). ------------------------------------------------- Connect with the Christian Research Institute (CRI): 🔴 Subscribe to our channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/CRInstit... 🔴 Subscribe to the Bible Answer Man on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... ✔️ Subscribe to “Hank Unplugged” on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... ✔️ Subscribe to our magazine the Cʜʀɪsᴛɪᴀɴ Rᴇsᴇᴀʀᴄʜ Jᴏᴜʀɴᴀʟ's weekly podcast https://www.spreaker.com/show/postmod... 📒 Visit CRI’s website: http://www.equip.org/ ✅ Listen to the Bible Answer Man broadcast live streaming Monday through Friday from 6-6:30 PM ET online at http://www.equip.org/ #forgiveness #morality #bible
