ofc everyone makes mistakes but shouldnt ppl try to learn from them & not do it again?? i think so. unfortunately he doesnt agree & sees no issue w it (evidenced by him continuing to do so & the convo ive had w him asking him abt his motivations behind saying it & feelings on the topic in which he says hes "allowed to say whatever he wants" & if his words hurt anyone "thats their problem" bc theyre "just words") thats why i have a problem. not bc someone made a simple mistake

Everyone deserves another chance. I should have included that in my original comment. We live in a broken world and are simply human. We all have growing to do and it’s a rocky road no matter who you are.

You just described turning the other cheek, besides the “HOW COULD THEY” at the end.

Also don’t pull jesusfreak_ into this. If you have an issue with me you and I can have a cordial discussion about it and try to come to some sort of agreement.

picture this okay? ur in a relationship w this girl. u love her w ur whole heart. but she ends up cheating on u. she literally tells u to ur face that she doesnt regret it at all & she WILL be doing it again. in fact she has a plan to tmrw. r u going to stay w her & hope she'll change? or r u going to be like oh maybe she doesnt think its wrong & wont change bc in order for change to occur the person has to actually work on themselves & acknowledge their wrongdoing

Well that’s a tough situation. Am I married to her? If so, I do everything in my power to work through it with her and no matter what way it goes, divorce or making up, I work to forgive her. Are we dating? It’s the same situation. Do everything I can to work through it no matter what way it goes, and forgiveness. Because that’s what Christ models.

Cheating and saying a word are completely different circumstances

Like I said, I said it once. It wasn’t hatefully. It wasn’t out of malice. Just chill out, bro. We’re all friends here

i am chill🫠 i am simply trying to express my opinion

Anonymous littlepenis2.9 12w

also yes u did say it once on this app however ur comment here says "now & then" implying u do say it more than that but lets just go w once. what i meant by the example i gave wasnt equating cheating w saying the n word i was trying to give a concrete example of how someone doing smth that hurts someone & not being remorseful or trying to fix it & the other person still believing that they might change can be harmful

Anonymous OP 12w

I would say, respectfully, that your opinion is wrong. I’ve only said it once whereas your post makes it seem like I say it frequently

1

Anonymous jesusfreak_ 12w

u can only try to work through it so much if the other person isnt willing thats the point i was trying to get across. & sure forgiveness is great but u can also forgive from afar & hold ppl accountable for their bad actions

You know I openly troll people, right? I’ll say whatever I have to to get under your skin and the fact you’re still writing paragraph after paragraph kinda proves my point

So we agree that turning the corner cheek is valid then.

sir ur comment is the one that says "every now & then"😭 if anyone made it seem like u say it frequently it was YOU

i think it depends on ur definition of turning the other cheek bc the way u responded initially felt a bit off but maybe i just didnt interpret it the way u meant!

Turning the other cheek, simply put, is being the bigger person, loving someone despite disagreeing with them, being hurt by them, persecuted, whatever it may be, and choosing forgiveness and love rather than matching their energy.

There definitely is! There’s speaking the truth in love but I also know that at the end of the day it’s up to God to change people for the better, I’m just supposed to show people the love of Christ and let Him do the legwork.

yah i can ask u to stop a specific behavior on my post after i quoted urs to talk abt what u said?? just bc i quoted ur post it doesnt mean u have free reign to do whatever u want😭

1

Anonymous jesusfreak_ 12w

i agree w all of that but i do think (idk if its just me) ur initial comments come off more as defending his behavior (even if its not how u actually feel) rather than holding him accountable & i think that may be detrimental. idk just smth to think abt ig

Anonymous OP 12w

I was making broad statements.

1

Anonymous jesusfreak_ 12w

no i see that😭 but do u see how in the context of the post it can come off as like defending? like someone points out how smth someone is doing is wrong & someone else goes "well everyone does/says things they shouldnt" like it kinda comes off as dismissive (ik u didnt mean it that way)

1

im gonna be honest i did not expect it🥲 hes always seemed like a relatively decent guy in his posts, genuine, well-spoken, kind...

Hello? When did I ever say saying the n word is okay? My whole point I made was having grace for other people.

my friend did u just completely ignore my last comment to u😭😭

Anonymous OP 12w

Oh I didn’t even see it. I wasn’t trying to be dismissive. I was just trying to offer my opinion.

Sin is sin. Grace and forgiveness is needed in all aspects.

1

And I’m actively saying love the sinner, hate the sin. That’s what grace is.

I showed up to this one because I scrolled and found it. I leave plenty of comments on plenty of posts

That is what I said

Anonymous jesusfreak_ 12w

okay its fine. i have a feeling we're just gonna keep going in circles here. essentially i just feel as tho what u initially said came off as dismissive (which in turn makes it seem like ur defending his actions). u didnt mean it that way tho & u said u didnt mean it that way so its alright ig😭 i cant make anyone do anything differently & everyone just lives how they wanna live so yay everyones happy im tired

1

That’s not how that works at all. Turning the other cheek is not arguing forever with and just telling him (in a way that shows him love) it’s wrong and praying for him. God’s grace only comes into effect if he repents of it and does better, but that’s not up to us. It’s for God to work on his heart.

1

Yes, he was. I was more of trying to say that he needed to understand that it’s not his job to change his mind, simply state the case, show him love, but not to waste a ton of energy on it.

im a he now i see how it is😔🤚 (joking) & all i did was state the case😭 there was no discussion until u commented

Oops my bad. Didn’t mean to misgender.

Meaning that we can’t make the changes in someone’s heart. It’s up to them and God to work on their heart. He gave us the ability to speak to communicate.

I’m simply responding to you guys. If you don’t want me to, then I’ll stop.

...i feel like we're coming to the same conclusion in a roundabout way😭 its up to the person to be willing to make a change themself & we cant expect for them to change when they havent given us any reason to or any indication that they even think what theyre doing is wrong idk why it took so long for us to get here but YAY HAPPY ENDING EVERYBODY CLAP
