I am concerned with pscyho-babble and false "therapy" that says you do not have to forgive those who have wronged you. Not only is this completely unbiblical, it is spiritually dangerous. To forgive does not mean you forget, but it does mean you do not bring it up again. I am not saying forgiveness is easy, but we have all been forgiven of the greatest crime of all--we killed the Son of God. And yet the Father forgave us for that. We have been forgiven of the greatest debt, so we dare not require the debt that is small from others.
The parable of the unmerciful servant is very key here.
Forgive Hitler. Forgive women. Forgive men. Forgive cops. Forgive white men. Forgive feminists. Forgive everyone.
Yes, even the one who wronged you.
Because Jesus forgave you.
Well said brother
