“I can list countless verses.” You can list countlessly poorly translated verses. There are two forms of forgiveness in the Bible. The Bible also has a shit ton of murder in it. The mortal version of “forgiveness” is not the same as the divine version, you don’t not have the power to forgive, you have the power for mortal “forgiveness” which literally means to dismiss or abandon when translated from the Greek texts.
must love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us,
“ If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone”
If you cannot bring yourself to forgive Karmelo, understand that if you cannot forgive others of their sins against you (a creature deserving of nothing), God will not forgive you for your sins against the Almighty
You’re literally blaspheming here. You have no power to absolve sin, that is gods power alone. The forgiveness required of you is to dismiss or abandon the person and even then it’s very murky because God specifically has his servants kill people in retribution all throughout the Old Testament.
Please, please, please, show me anywhere where the burden of judgement or forgiveness is placed on man over god, I’ll wait.
Sooo you have no actual argument other than blaspheming?
