Greetings JA03! From one who is most often in the position of "offending," I'd like to offer a response. Your question is pretty vague, but I suspect that you are questioning the way that we are to be reconciled to one another when a breach of trust has been made. It does not matter who made the rules, but if an offense has occurred, then it is up to the offender to be reconciled to the one offended. (Matthew 5:23-24)Sometimes, this is clear cut and pretty easy to see but . . . See Matthew 18:15-22- At times, the offender may not even know that he/she has offended someone else. In this case, the offended person has the reponsibility to make the offense known to the offender, not for humiliation or shame, but in order to bring about a reconciliation or restoration of the relationship. This of course necessitates the offer of forgiveness from the offended. Generally, when one becomes aware of an offense, the response is one of remorse and repentance. However, even if the one who offends does not apologize, it is always right to forgive. When we don't forgive as God in Christ forgave us, we offend HIM!(Hebrews 12:14-15; Eph 4:26-27; Eph 4:32) I hope this helps. Blessings, mommapbs |
