Jesus paid the price for eternal salvation, but He did not negate the principle that we must reap what we sow.
“We laugh, but the merriment stops when Will says, “Blackface is not gone! If the words are written by a white man, then it doesn’t matter if it’s a colored man on that stage or a white man in blackface. The words are still written by men who’ve never lived a moment without privilege, telling stories of men who cannot even purchase access to privilege.”

“You know you have forgiven a person when you can remember all that they did and instead of being angry, you have compassion like Jesus did for those who crucified Him on the cross and said, “Father forgive them, they know not what they do.” If the person who hurt or abused you were to come into a room where you were, and sit down near you – how would you feel? If you would still want to hurt them, then you have not forgiven them. If you would feel compassion for them, then you have totally forgiven them. It doesn’t mean that you should pursue having a relationship with an abusive person who is not healed from their soul wounds and delivered from their demons yet, because they would hurt you again. Keeping them at a distance is wise.”
