We are a Christian nation. It's in our constitution, its product in our lives, and for some of us, in our hearts. Given the horrific evil pervading our Christ-centered nation, digging itself in around the world, it's easy for us to say that, should we win, if we win, that being the fight against evil, that we will forgive. Let us not mistake that we will win, for God may give us problems too big for us to solve, but no problem is too big for God to solve. And, lest we forget, our forgiving only opens the conversation to their redemption, it does not settle their atonement. Those who are evil must atone for their sins. We may forgive them, and God will judge them, but our forgiving them does not mean we must suffer them either. Let them be forgiven, cast out among the social lepers, to wallow in their misery, for them to beg of God their own complicity in their ill doings, for we righteous shall forgive their transgressions, but neither will we forget.
