Grace is a good one. Humility. And from what I understand of your religion, being a sinner is par for the life course. And forgiving is as well. It appears he turned away from both his profession’s and his religion’s main tenets.

Acknowledgment of sin. It doesn’t have to be what is accused, which is sometimes bogus. I don’t see anything even close to a convincing case in the accusations of sexual misconduct. Roy is about as far from playboy stuff as one can get. The worst accusers were also the fishiest. It looks gratuitous.

But the judges are also judged from heaven, and the gospels remind us that murder starts in the heart. You might not ever shoot someone but you might wish him dead on your own accounting rather than on the basis of an applicable divine dictate. Judging can easily lapse into over-judging, spoiling for a fight. The resulting momentum can make it hard to defend oneself even when harmless.
