I think it’s pretty clear. If you don’t understand it, I’m not of a mind to make it any clearer
Originally posted by @romans1009You have copy-pasted 5-6 bits of scripture, not one of them contains the word "forgive" or "forgiveness" or "forgiving" and if I am not mistaken, you have posted maybe a dozen times and have not typed any of the words "forgive" or "forgiveness" or "forgiving" in any of your posts.
I read and understood the OP and gave my perspective. The fact that you apparently don’t understand it doesn’t mean it’s not apparent, or even obvious, to other people.

I have no interest in making clearer what already is clear. I’ve written that the Psalms and James 4:14 speak of the brevity of life and the Psalms and Romans verse speak to God meting out whatever justice is needed, and because He is a perfect and perfectly holy and just God, that justice will be appropriate.
If you think that doesn’t address the OP, that’s fine. I have no interest in making it any clearer.

I don't think you're making much sense, to be honest, or being very realistic. Are you really talking about stuff that people type on this message board? Who needs to ask for forgiveness? Who needs to forgive? What are you on about?
Innit?
Originally posted by @philokaliaThis seems a bit fridge magnet-like to me. But so be it. What about egregious wrong, unrepentant wrongdoers, permanent harm, personal betrayal, family feuds and so on? What about some nitty gritty of 'how to forgive' rather than flimsy stuff about posting styles and sarcasm on a message board?
