Forgiveness after repentance!
Just got finished reading this neat book (#SpeedReader ) and was pleasantly surprised and impressed to see that Hans Poley ACTUALLY taught Forgiveness right!
Wow.
The Bible teaches that you only forgive someone who REPENTS first (Luke 17). 🔥
My dad has taught this for decades!!! See, this is the difference between when a more emotional Woman and a more spiritual Man writes a book… Corrie Ten Boom (wrongly) pushes a “Blanket forgiveness” In her book (The Hiding Place). She also, unfortunately, got extremely ecumenical in her beliefs and weaker on doctrines as she got more popular and older. Women are weaker vessels and can be deceived easier than men (“And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.”
1 Timothy 2:14 KJV).
Hans Poley RIGHTLY pushed the Biblical Worldview of Forgiveness AFTER repentance (which my Dad has taught for DECADES!). This doesn’t mean that we harbor bitternes, and we always stand WILLING to forgive. But to hand out blank check forgiveness, and to embrace sinners in their unrepentant sin, is to indict the Lord of Glory HIMSELF! 👑
God does not forgive anyone who doesn’t repent first.
“Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him. And if he trespass against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again to thee, saying, I repent; thou shalt forgive him.”
Luke 17:3-4 KJV
🔥❤️🔥💙🩵
Blessings! ☺️
I guess Christians back then could ACTUALLY READ the Bible!!!
Praise Jesus.
Glad I was raised to study the Bible!

ReplyDeleteNeed any clarification?
DeleteWell, I was just wondering how this works in practice. If the person who sins against you is a believer, then that could lead to them being put out of fellowship. Hopefully it wouldn't come to that. But what does it mean if the person is a non-Christian? What is the difference between forgiving them and not forgiving them if we mustn' t become bitter. I don't know if I'm explaining this very well. It's got me using my brain though, and that can't be a bad thing. 😄😊
