If yes, then its right for the pastor to declare the thief “should not wallow in jail.”


NO. There are needed consequences to sin even if forgiven. That is how God operates.

Is that how God operates? Please explain. I was told that God forgives all sins if one truly repents.

The State and Courts may not care, which I accept. But a pastor should always ask for leniency for someone to whom sin has become repugnant.

Let's dive into an FR theological debate. Those are always fun!
