True forgiveness
Post #1To forgive is to wipe-off the offenses of our offenders. In order to wipe-off the offenses the offenders must reject sin. Since, only the spirit of God’s love will enable us to reject sin, we must enable our offenders to embrace this spirit by expressing God’s love and compassion towards them. We must always remember that when we sinned God did not condemn us. Instead, by his sacrifice on the cross he instilled the spirit of true love in our hearts; which enables us to reject sin and accept forgiveness. Therefore, we must never refuse to forgive others; because when we refuse to forgive, we reject the spirit of God’s love and the forgiveness that comes from it.

Luke.6:37 Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:
Getting into heaven is simple.
As long as you don't condemn anyone you won't be condemned.
That's really all you need to worry about.
If you don't condemn anyone then you can't be condemned unless Jesus was a liar.
If you're a Christian you're probably hoping that Jesus wasn't a liar.
So don't condemn anyone and you'll be just fine.
You can guarantee your own salvation. It's entirely in your own hands. And Jesus didn't even need to die to make that possible. In fact, you don't even need to condone the crucifixion of Jesus on your behalf, so there's no point in doing that. Let that blood be on the hands of those who actually did the crucifixion. No point in you getting yourself involved with something that has nothing to do with you.
