Five Myths About Forgiveness!

These Five Myths about Forgiveness are written by Dr. Sam Storms.You will
 find his writings promoted on John Pipers Desiring God, Monergism, Driscoll's
 Acts 29, and AdrianWarnocks site.

I mention all of this so that you can sense the weight of this brothers influence
in the Kingdom and why each of you brothers should prioritize reading the entire
article.


You will discover that the article supports the doctrinal position advocated
during our Redeemed Community days together and which is consistently the
same today. Note that it certainly applies to a relatively recent attack upon
 our doctrinal position via a public venue.
.
Be encouraged, we are not alone my friends. There continues to be a broad
and deep remnant of kingdom oriented citizens.

1. Contrary to what many have been led to believe, forgiveness is not forgetting.


2. Forgiving someone does not mean you no longer feel the pain of their offense


3. Forgiving someone who has sinned against you doesn’t mean you cease longing for justice.


4. Forgiveness does not mean you are to make it easy for the offender to hurt you again.


5. Forgiveness is rarely a one-time, climactic event.
