Even I have to ask The Lord to check my heart ,as I get things in my spirit that shouldn't be there.

Hehehe. I deleted my post. Just the thought of discussing anything with her puts me in a bad mood.
Rico, perhaps you just need to forgive and move on. I didn't see your response, and didn't even think my post needed one, but I don't see where I missed the point.
Do you not think that we are required to forgive even those who don't ask?
God will not forgive us if we ask His forgiveness for ourselves but have unforgiveness in our heart. That's Bible.

NO! I'm not leaving. I want to know what you were going to say cause I thought HO's post was Biblical and true.
SO, I'm not leaving!!!!
Put on your preacher and tell it, brutha!!! Do the comb over and get er done!
Hehehe. Basically, what I was saying is that, yes, we are required to forgive someone when they ask, but I do not think we are required to forgive someone who doesn't ask. If we are required to forgive someone who doesn't ask, then God expects more from us than He expects from Himself. If God forgives our sin without us asking then there would be no need for anyone to ask for His forgiveness. Asking for His forgiveness is the most basic component of receiving salvation. Keep in mind that I also believe it isn't a good idea for us not to forgive someone, whether they ask or not, but that has more to do with human weakness than God requiring us to forgive before someone asks us to forgive them. Make sense now?

Hmmmm....yes, I see where you are coming from. That's interesting as I never thought about it that way. I'll have to mull that one over, but it does make some sense.
Thanks for explaining. You can comb your hair back to normal now!
