Another question for Christians

[Godscreated]

To forgive someone you have to humble yourself and not think yourself above the offender, this is true forgiveness.

I'm tempted to label this a "non-sequitur" but perhaps you can explain why forgiveness = thinking yourself equal or holding a grudge = thinking yourself superior. And maybe we can tie all that into the prerequisite ritual of bleeding on a cross?

Christ lowered Himself to the status of a man, Christ said that He came not to be served but to serve. See any similarity between this statement and my above statement.
To hold a grudge against someone a person believes he/she is superior to the offender, this is a natural thing with humans, also the offender feels superior to the one offended, that's the result of an action that offends.To forgive should not necessarily mean the offender ask for forgiveness, true forgiveness is given not asked for, for that to happen one will have to humble him/herself and leave the feeling of superiority behind. Christ dying on the cross was not a ritual, He humbly bleed to death for us, He gave us forgiveness by humility.
