Does Forgiveness force association?

Starman · Dec 24, 2006, 02:25 PM

Is a Christian under obligation to associate with an offending person on a friendly basis in order to show that he has forgiven him? Does refusal to associate indicate lack of forgiveness? Or does it all depend on the gravity of the offense?

My apologies if this is incorrect, perhaps some one could set me right on this.

You certainly can comment on older threads. Furthermore, I agree that newer members can learn from older threads as this is exactly what I did when I first arrived here. This issue seemed like it had rested almost a year and half ago and it seemed like once it was started up again it was more attacks about something that was said in January of 2007. However, instead of answering the OP's question it seemed like it was going in an attack direction which I didn't see the point in.

Thanks Chuff... fair enough, not an attack just my opinion.

We are all originals, words do not always portray what is meant to come across.
Appreciate your coming back to me

cheers
