Our Lord fully expects us to be as merciful as He is.   This forgiveness is of the heart.   

We know that Law Of The Lord is still in effect in this age of the world despite His forgiveness of our sins IN HIS HEART.   We still reap the effects of sin in our flesh and our souls.   

The informed believer understands our President, while those who have been fed a one-sided view of Christ do not.   
To the latter he is offensive, and in their minds, God cannot be pleased with him.   
However, the former understands that God uses people who are available and willing.   
Such is our President.   

Many 'good' people were offended by Trump's comments about Rob Reiner upon his passing.   What these 'good' people don't seem to grasp is that what we say and what we do defines us, and as Jesus said "It is what comes out of a man that defiles him."

So, we defile ourselves whenever we say and do things that are morally wrong.   

As he showed very often, Reiner was a political enemy of Trump in the strongest possible way.   The fact that Reiner died a sad death does not diminish who he was as a person, what he said and what he did.   

Trump recognizes this truth whereas many 'good' people are too willing to forgive even when the person they are forgiving is unrepentant.   
(We forgive for our own sakes - so that our heart remains free.    We are just for other's sake.   It is an aspect of love).

However, despite the fact that our President is brash and egotistical, his conflict with Reiner was political - an aspect of the battle in which he is engaged for the restoration of America.   

It is a fact that we are allowing many enemies of our Republic to get a free pass.   Giving out free passes to the unrepentant is a recipe for disaster.   

We are now at a point where we must have JUSTICE or we will die as a nation.   

1Pe 4:17 says that judgment must first come to the house of God.   
God lives in us individually (or not) and unifies us in families, churches and communities by His Holy Spirit.   

In order for us to maintain right standing with God we must continue to stand with Him.   
God does not change.   
His Grace is reserved for those who call upon Him, who believe on Him.   
Those who reject His love and Grace will only know His judgment.   

My point is that we as Christians must balance mercy and justice in this fallen world and in our fallen nation.   

Mercy demands that we forgive the repentant.   Justice demands that we punish the guilty.   
If we allow mercy to encroach on justice we turn mercy into an instrument of evil.   

Our God is merciful but He is also just.
