Today,
reply is on divine and human forgiveness. GOD can forgive mankind
for the transgression of divine law, for when required to fulfill the
sovereign will of divinity, nothing is impossible with GOD. In the
same way, tabernacle and temple priests did not cure those with
leprosy, yet, were to acknowledge and discern the workings of GOD to
declare a leper fit to return to the congregation, men may serve GOD
by confirming that other men are forgiven for the transgression of
divine law and again are fit as members of the worship community. As
seen through Jesus Christ, expressions of divine forgiveness may
appear only when carried out by those consecrated and ordained as an
agent and embodiment of divinity with privilege to manifest divine
authority and power. Where sin is divinely forgiven, multiple sacred
operations also appear that may include atonement, birth, death,
sacrifice, the imparting of spirit substance from the full makeup of
divinity, reconciliation, justification, sanctification, and the
second death. Through Jesus Christ the living now may operate as
the new creation, and at the coming of Jesus are to
become gathered with those raised from the dead who will receive
eternal life. It is written: 2nd Corinthians 5: 17-19,
King James Version (KJV): 17 Therefore if any man be in
Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away;
behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of
God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath
given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 19 To wit, that God was
in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their
trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of
reconciliation. The fighter in the “Yahoo! Answers” public forum

Do
you agree that if God can forgive us for our sins we should forgive
others for their sins too?
THE
GOLDEN ARROW: Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a
certain king, which would take account of his servants. And when he
had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten
thousand talents. But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord
commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he
had, and payment to be made. The servant therefore fell down, and
worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay
thee all. Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion,
and loosed him, and forgave him the debt. But the same servant went
out, and found one of his fellow-servants, which owed him an hundred
pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat,
saying, Pay me that thou owest. And his fellow-servant fell down at
his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will
pay thee all. And he would not: but went and cast him into prison,
till he should pay the debt. So when his fellow-servants saw what
was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all
that was done. Then his lord, after that he had called him, said
unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt,
because thou desiredst me: Shouldest not thou also have had
compassion on thy fellow-servant, even as I had pity on thee? And
his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he
should pay all that was due unto him. So likewise shall my heavenly
Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one
his brother their trespasses. (Matthew 18: 23-35, KJV)

“Luigi
Shadow”, GOD can forgive, and it is only by the operations and
substance of GOD becoming alive within mankind that men are able to
forgive. Where mankind exercises forgiveness among themselves it is
consistent with the operations of humanity to express the character,
image, and nature of divinity that was imparted from GOD to Adam as
life essence (we say, breath; spirit; utterance; word). Those
living on the earth as vessels of divine fullness are carnal and
material expressions of sacred law, divine prerogative, eternal
purpose, and the sovereign will of GOD. Forgiveness is not the
outcome of judgment so much as an outcome of grace; and forgiveness
does not provide or replace atonement, confession, and repentance.
Forgiveness reveals the active presence of such inseparable aspects
of the divine makeup as balance, commitment, completeness,
forbearance, lovingkindness, mercy, personhood, oneness without
sameness, wisdom, and wrath against sin. The response to forgiveness
is to be change and correction, rather than punishment. Instead of a
demand for legality and strictness of discipline, there is a
requirement for faithfulness and perseverance. Forgiveness is to
signal a revival of covenant relationship and the continuation of
spiritual development and growth. All divinity (i.e., the Godhead;
the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit) participates in the process of
sacred judgment that is ongoing and eternal through the existence and
life of GOD. Because transgression of divine law is also the
violation of all divine order, the removal of sacred spirit from
Creation, and the introduction of imbalance throughout the universe,
death (that first appeared as a tool when establishing Adam as both
male and female yet one) becomes a divine tool along with delay of
judgment, for permitting mankind salvation through discovery, gradual
growth, rebirth, and sanctification. The sanction of death declared
in the law of GOD becomes elimination through the second death,
because through Jesus Christ divinity now allows resurrection from
the dead. Consider again the following that uses language from the
Bible, and the selection from the music ministry of Dallas Holm:
(1.)
2nd Peter 3: 9-15, King James Version (KJV); 9 The Lord
is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but
is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but
that all should come to repentance. 10 But the day of the Lord will
come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass
away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent
heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned
up. 11 Seeing then that all these things shall be
dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all
holy conversation and godliness, 12 Looking for and hasting unto the
coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be
dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? 13
Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a
new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. 14 Wherefore, beloved,
seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found
of him in peace, without spot, and blameless. 15 And account that
the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our
beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath
written unto you;
(2.)
Romans 8: 1-9, KJV: 1 There is therefore now no
condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after
the flesh, but after the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life
in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. 3
For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh,
God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin,
condemned sin in the flesh: 4 That the righteousness of the law
might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the
Spirit. 5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of
the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the
Spirit. 6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be
spiritually minded is life and peace. 7 Because the carnal
mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law
of God, neither indeed can be. 8 So then they that are in the flesh
cannot please God. 9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit,
if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not
the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
(3.)
Revelation 2: 10-11, KJV: 10 Fear none of those things which thou
shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into
prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days:
be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
11 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the
churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.
(4.)
Revelation 20: 6, KJV: 6 Blessed and holy is he that hath
part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no
power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall
reign with him a thousand years.
There
is far more that should be said, correctly examined, and spiritually
apprehended. (For example, (5.)

so, I trust this fragment will be useful. Be it unto you according
to your faith.
