ECT Forgiving and Forgiveness

Jesus said that forgiveness is reciprocal and to the extent we forgive others we ourselves are forgiven.

This is the grace of God as I put the spin on it. I would gladly offer many scriptural proofs of this grace as taught by Jesus, but I might find myself again "on alert" for being characterized as blasphemous and disruptive.

It is always puzzling and curious to me why scriptural evidence I offer fails to even register to most of the posters on TOL.

Why don't you answer the questions and respond to the scriptures I post?
Based on my own experience, it is often difficult to engage in the necessary hermeneutics to find out what a particular passage meant to its original authors and audiences.

We often take a lazy approach and interpret a verse or a passage through our own post-modern lens.

Unfortunately, it's just easier to do.

You need to accept the fact it is circus here.

Just read the scriptures and believe.
