Stef- Your tweet about forgiveness was clearly criticizing the choices of a woman who just lost her husband and had her life turned upside down. Of course you are going to get some heat for that. If she had forgiven him in the way that you imply in your follow-up podcast, she would be demanding that he was released from jail and that the charges were dropped. She hasn’t. As a matter of fact, she said that she wants the government to decide whether or not he should get the death penalty. She is letting go of the hatred in her heart for this POS.
The Christian community has not forgiven him. We cannot say that God has forgiven him. But Erika Kirk has forgiven him because it is the best thing FOR HER. Harboring resentment for this guy and seething with hatred for him- will do her no good. It will only effect her- and not in a positive way.
Definition From Berkeley.edu
The very recent (late 19th century) push for blanket forgiveness in Protestant Christianity cannot be moral because it is a purely private, even secret, commitment, but morality is relational (I can poke my own I but I shouldn’t poke yours).
Jesus on the Christ is clearly speaking of Forgiveness in a moral sense out of concern for the Roman soldiers, not for his own private/therapeutic reasons.
If I were a power hungry politician, I’d LOVE the masses to adopt this.
