?I still don't think it is Christian to forgive someone who is not sorry for the real sin of their actions.

You can forgive but not reconcile and not continue to be taken advantage of - and you can go ahead and expose error and lies and sin - all the while being open to reconciliation should you see true repentance. That's where I draw the line. Forgiveness is ostensibly something you do more for your own peace than for the other person... initially.

Yes but the woman that is beaten by a man in a marriage. I'm sorry from the man who is not truely repentant will beat the woman again. True repentance will only stop the sin. She is not truely repentant. The country will be beaten again by her. Let the cycle stop and I will forgive her.
