Unless the sinner asks for forgiveness and repents handing it out like a penny candy is decidedly un-Biblical.

I forgive mfers every day
Got a chapter and verse? That’s an interesting take on the topic.
Colossians 3:13
Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the LORD forgave you.
Dumbest post of the day. So I can’t unilaterally forgive someone? I’d love to see the Bible verse you’re going to haul out to defend this ridiculous position.
God said “love your enemies”.
She did apologize to them.

That is not true!
“Unless the sinner asks for forgiveness and repents handing it out like a penny candy is decidedly un-Biblical.”
Jesus doesn’t agree with you...
John 8:3-11 King James Version (KJV)
3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
NO word on her asking for forgiveness, or repenting afterwards. But maybe Jesus didn’t know all the more arcane sorority rules of the church he started.
Matthew 5:7
Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
Matthew 7:2
For with the same judgment you pronounce, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
Matthew 18:35
That is how My Heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother from your heart.”
Mark 11:25
And when you stand to pray, if you hold anything against another, forgive it, so that your Father in heaven will forgive your trespasses as well.”
Luke 6:37
Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.
Ephesians 4:32
Be kind and tender-hearted to one another, forgiving each other just as in Christ God forgave you.
Colossians 3:13
Bear with each other and forgive any complaint you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.
Go find the video and watch it. I know you can see it on Instapundit and I’m sure Twitchy too. This woman’s attorneys mounted a vigorous defense on her part, which is what they should do, but I believe she has shown remorse from the start.
