Bible Question (short): The Biblical achilles heal |
Question (full): Yes, I agree with the "repent", "remorse".... I am suggesting that if a person does a bad act, apologises and repeats deliberately, 7 times in one day... I am required to forgive? lol, I must have expressed poorly. I was born a christian, and now atheist. But since our culture operates by biblical moral, it is necessary to know and understand it. And quite frankly, I can not follow it, if it leaves no room to not forgive. Some people are evil and learn biblical ways and play them like musical instrument. Those people really like this achilles heal on forgiveness.... Is this the same forgiveness that guy got his head crushed in, in the LA riots and forgave the guy who did it? Was he required to.... by any interpretation? Could he opt not to, even if the guy offered remorse? In Luke 17:4, it indicates that he had no choice if there was remorse. |
