The Textbook answer is yes.
My friend. I don't know and you don't either. We have not been in that situation. I'm very aware of what I need to do.
All anyone can do is the same thing. PRAY that God Himself relieve you from the hurt and forgive that person for it.
If you want to see how tough a Christian life really is...try this one on.
To really forgive? You would have this person at your house the same night as the funeral and have dinner. You would go fishing with them the next weekend. Now..How forgiving is one..... really?
Good Q*.

Forgiveness is THE hardest emotion to give, but the pain of losing your child does overpower the hate for the person who took that child.
Forgivness is the ability to let go and just greive and remember.
It is not your job to judge and sentence even though you would like to.
Has the person been caught?
If so maybe you need the closure that talking to him could give you. Facing him would be extremely hard for you and him, but an inner peace for you may come out of it.
Good Luck
and God Bless you in finding your peace

In a perfect world, yes, I would like to think I am able to forgive anything. However, IF placed in that position I am not sure I would really be able to do it and truly mean it.
The person who committed such a crime might ask his family if they could forgive ME for killing their child...
I honestly don't know- good introspective question though.

Forgiveness is not about the person who needs to be forgiven, it's about the person who needs to forgive! Don't let that situation rob you of the rest of your life. Even if they never ask to be forgiven, do it anyway and get on with the plan that God has for your life. I know it sounds easier said than done, but it is doable. You may have to forgive in steps, it may not happen overnight, but through a process it can happen. Take the first steps today.

Mormons believe that gay habit is forgiveable. The bishop does have a duty to work out that fake doctrine isn't taught in the Church, which consists of a Sunday college class, even with the indisputable fact that the bishop does no longer have a duty to respond to each and every question positioned to a Sunday college instructor. possibly he felt that the Sunday college instructor had replied the question properly adequate, without offending the asker of the question, or offending the truly new Sunday college instructor. that's so confusing to understand what to do because individuals are so truly indignant. We believe so that you could bypass on from weak faith to good faith to understand-how. it could be good that you may have more suitable than "blind" faith. God does no longer despise any of his little ones. there is an unforgiveable sin, the sin antagonistic to the Holy Ghost, even with the indisputable fact that it isn't unforgiveable because it offends God a lot. it isn't unforgiveable because God hates that individual. God nevertheless loves the guy who sins antagonistic to the Holy Ghost. the reason that's unforgiveable is via the indisputable fact that individual has reached a level the position no longer some thing will make a distinction in that individual's existence to assist them go back to God. they have lengthy gone previous the point the position God can help them go back to Him. once you quite understand God's teachings you keep in mind that God is continually one hundred% suitable. There are "gay" human beings at BYU. you would possibly want to be an brazenly "gay" individual and be common to BYU. You threat being unable to finish your practise at BYU in case you as a BYU pupil have sex with someone who isn't your significant different, no matter if you're "gay" or "immediately." that's a contravention of the honour code to fornicate, even with the indisputable fact that that's forgiveable.

That's very hard. My Lord tells me to forgive that person because because He will take care of that person on His own and if I don't I bear the burden of the sinner onto myself. So yes I would forgive him/her because I trust God will punish as he sees fit, which is eternity in Hell. I'm not going to lie and say how long that would take or it wouldn't be the hardest thing to do but I would have to get there to have peace. I guess knowing that forgiveness meant I'd see my child again I'd do it, In heaven I mean. I can't say I'd get over it or anything but it wouldn't consume me into hate. I don't want to bear that person's sin onto myself, which wouldn't be something I'd want to answer for being innocent of those crimes. Make sense?

I think it would be extremely difficult to but if God can forgive me of my sins, then I should be willing to forgive the sins of others. I would just need a lot of strength and encouragement from God to forgive that person though.

I can forgive a lot of things but not that.
I couldn't forgive it if the child belonged to someone else.

We're supposed to forgive them...but it would be incredibly hard and would take a long time for me to forgive them.
