And forgive those....
Matthew 6:
And forgive us our debts,
As we forgive our debtors.
Forgiving is hard. The next part of the of the Lord's Prayer says that forgiving is par of what we should. So that's one. Proverbs 25 tells us to give water to our enemies and feed them. And God will "pour heaps of coal on their head".
Should we put conditions on forgiveness? Did Christ put conditions on his forgiveness?
No, of course note. We have eternal grace and mercy. God gives it to us. We must likewise give it to others.
