Questions about Forgiveness

September 20, 2018

Featuring:

DISCUSSION: EMail Question Email question - Dear Brothers in Christ, How is it that some say we must forgive those who sin against us even when they refuse to repent. God will not forgive those who do not repent will He, so how can we think we have that right. I know we, as Christians we always stand ready to forgive but is not forgiveness dependent upon repentance? After saying all this, I will say it would not be Christian to carry a grudge or a vindictive attitude but be ready to offer that forgiveness to a repentant sinner. Thank you for the many years of Arise to Truth and sharing the gospel to a dying world. Yours in Christ, Sent from my iPad Caller: - Please explain the words "tenderhearted, humble, love, etc." Caller: - Asking about the casino being in the Bristol Mall.
