When you forgive someone, you move past the offense against you and be willing to let them into your life again. Erika shouldn't be Christcucking out and be recommending an express meeting between her husband's assassin and the big man upstairs.
it's not the Christian position anyway. when you forgive someone who has wronged you it means you no longer hold a hatred in your heart against them and wish to see them repent and come to Christ. It does not mean you are to wipe their slate clean and let their evil go unpunished. Forgiving someone in your heart does not cancel their accountability before God or society.

It is perfectly Biblical to say "I hold no hatred in my heart for this man and i pray for his repentance, but his deeds are Evil and an affront to God's law and thus in accordance to His divine justice should be put to death."
 
I don't know if forgiveness is the right word. When you forgive someone, you move past the offense against you and be willing to let them into your life again. Erika shouldn't be Christcucking out and be recommending an express meeting between her husband's assassin and fhe big man upstairs.
It's fine if she forgives them. I won't, and she can forgive me for that.
 
For anyone reading later, Erika Kirk forgave Charlie's Assassin.
"Lord forgive them for they not know what they do"
"That young man... I forgive him"

She went on to explain that Charlie would have wanted this because he was specifically trying to reach and save young radicalized men like the one who killed him.
Make no mistake, this is going to go down as one of the most historic speeches of our era. Erika's pained "I forgive him" and President Trump holding and consoling Erika are iconic moments in US history.

Thank you. The concept of forgiveness has been warped by the Jesus as soft and weak heresy. It's also thou shall not murder not thou shall not kill.
 
If anybody wants to understand the whole "forgiveness doesn't mean criminals roam free", read Romans 13. God uses executioners* and police as a way to punish evildoers who harm others, perhaps in other ways as well if you understand scripture. You don't have to do a thing yourself.

* Think Utah firing squad in this case.
Strength does not come from physical capacity, but from an indomitable will. - Joan Crawford

That's from my God.
 
Speaking of sins, I’m going to quote and reply to myself against all customs on this site.

If it’s unclear what and who can be forgiven, Trump Jr brought up the first martyr who was named Stephen. A man named Saul of Tarsus was present for his martyrdom and even held the cloaks of the men throwing the stones. Well Saul of Tarsus went on to be known as Paul the Apostle and wrote most of the New Testament. So that is why forgiveness is key. It’s actually more powerful than anger.
Forgiveness has great power indeed, especially in the world of faith and religion, but always remember that it can backfire.

A good example of this:
Years before the notorious Marcus Junius Brutus and Gaius Cassius Longinus plunged their blades into Julius Caesar, they were once his enemies that he had pardoned and welcomed back into the fold. Had the Roman dictator in perpetuity not shown mercy in the first place, would he had lived longer and prevented the assassination from happening altogether?

Fuentes is a FLAMING GAY NIGGER FAGGOT!
It’s almost like it’s a celebration of life for someone important to them who just got assassinated. And that maybe, the best way to honor the dead person’s will is to show the world that everything he stood for won’t die with him. Someone in Charlie Kirk’s position could only ever dream of the idea that the president would give a speech at his memorial. This isn’t something that happens for a non-politician, especially a 31 year old non-politician. What better way to show respect to Charlie than to publicly and loudly carry his torch?
 
Why are so many people talking about making her President? If my mechanic dies I'm not going to ask his wife to fix my car...

I do think it's way to early to be putting her out as a Presidential hopeful. Her priority now needs to be Charlie Kirk's legacy, both his children and his company. Given a good performance there and I'm open to the idea. For now she's somewhat of an unknown.

As someone who has a wife, I know I've had a strong influence on her over the years, and while she might not be able to express things I'm passionate as well as I could, I would trust her to have the outlook that I do. I believe her being Charlie's wife is a good indication , but I don't think it should be the sole judgement on her as a politician.

Yeah you definitely are not wrong. I would say that forgiveness doesn’t mean letting your guard down for sure

Alright, I need to brush up on my Christian theology. Please forgive me for I am retarded :'(

God let the bullet hit Charlie to show us how the left would have react if it had hit Trump.

I wasn't there, but I suspect that was more calculated political maneuvering gone wrong than genuine forgiveness. 🤷‍♂️
