MaryLovesJustice Prayer Meeting July 12, 2015, Forgiveness Not Required

MaryLovesJustice Prayer Meeting call-in number 818.572.2947. Luke 17:3 says if your brother sins against you AND REPENTS, forgive him. Question 1: Who is your brother? Question 2: What is repentence? Christians are being taught falsely that they must forgive everyone for any wrong, but that is not a biblical requirement. God requires people to repent, pay restitution if due, and ask for forgiveness. Would God demand more of His children than He does of Himself? The bible makes it clear that God hated Esau. Obviously, Esau did not get automatic forgiveness. Why should Christians give automatic forgiveness to unrepentent people who may not fit the criteria for brotherhood? Call the show to discuss our obligation to forgive and whether unsolicited forgiveness can be extended out of cowardice.
