FAF ,the granting of forgiveness in our personal relationships always has some basis.
Think about it.
If someone violates you, do you offer that person blanket forgiveness without regard to their attitude and behavior?
Or is there a reason you forgive?
Now, we Christians are told to forgive without regard to the other person's stance because Christ forgave us-and paid for our missing the mark- that is our basis. And that basis is predicated upon our actively taking His pardon.
But I am not talking about us in the question I ask, this is about how people like yourself deal with offenses.
Is there not a basis for forgiveness?
It seem obvious there is.
So how can you expect God to extend blanket pardons when you will not do it?
