Forgiveness, studied in detail more than churches do, becomes a matrix to navigate with a conclusion. Forgive who? Forgive them. Why? They know not what they do. Them? Male & female created called Adam. How oft? Not 7 times, but 70x7=490 times to each & every one: lots of potential l-o-n-g-suffering (abuse). How many? All men, else you don't forgiven, especially if you've prayed forgive us as we forgive. How many sins? All, else you get turned over to tormentors for being forgiven all debt & not forgiving debt. Debt? If ya breach any law ya become debtor to whole law: die!Forgiveness of blasphemy the Ghost not forgiveable, neither in this world nor the to come. Yet God hath forgiven you for Christ's sake. But God never desired sacrifice for sin, nor ever took pleasure in it; So forgiveness via sacrifice should be rethought: if one died for all then were "all dead". The promise(eternal life) comes after doing the will of God, is not have any sacrifice: not then, now, ever. Conclusion?

Law, good and better sacrifices which are of the law and by the law, can NEVER make the comers thereunto perfect, nor ever purge the conscience of sin. The only God who accepts sacrifice is the God on high, and it's a "fearful"(tormenting) thing to "fall" into the "hands" of God on high.
Conclusion?

We forgive others whether they ask for it or not, and precisely because they do not deserve it. Who ever deserves it?
Forgiveness sets us free of the sins of others and of the guilt of our own sins.

Your question is a biblical matrix to navigate. You need to sit down and hash this out with someone who's been to seminary. You've got all kinds of concepts twisted up.

My God, is this stuff really all you have to worry about? This is anorak ramblings....please, your life is sinking like a stone while your writing this piffle. Go outside and have a walk. Meet some real people. You'll find most of them are too busy just trying to live and survive to worry about nonsense like this.
