I'm not really sure what you wanted the man to do in this case. The chick was found guilty. She's going to jail. Him holding on to hatred for her serves no purpose. Again, I'm not saying that you or anyone else should have done what he did if you were in that position, but if he felt that forgiving her was the best way for him to move forward, why does that bother you so? Have you ever seen someone consumed by hate? I have. It didn't end well for that person.

I know the parable and the verses aren't saying what you said they were in your post. Jesus was not the subject of the verses.
The actual subject is the coming of the kingdom.
I've been telling these niggas that shit for years that basing your morality on what white folks do and don't do is a fast way to show you really do care what they think

Yeah, it is.
I mean I can see if you're strategizing on how to overcome white supremacy. Then to some extent you have to anticipate how they will move so you can react accordingly. The niggas on this site ain't thinking that deep. They are just on some "white people wouldn't do it, so why should I?" type shit. That basically means they have no principles of their own. Everything they do is predicated on what whites do. They are still slaves and they don't even realize it.

WRONG!!!
Jesus tells this parable immediately before going to Jerusalem, where he is to be crowned king (“Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord,” Luke 19:38) but soon is rejected by his people. This identifies Jesus with the nobleman in the parable, [/b]and the crowd shouting “Crucify him!” (Luke 23:21) with the people in the parable who oppose the nobleman’s coronation. By this we know that the people have profoundly misjudged their soon-to-be king, except for the two servants who work diligently in his absence. The parable, in this context, warns us that we must decide if Jesus is indeed God’s appointed king and be prepared to abide the consequences of our decision either to serve him or oppose him.[1]
This parable makes explicit that citizens of God’s kingdom are responsible to work toward God’s goals and purposes.

Lol at not seeing how Christianity is a white religion.
And the mere fact that Christianity was not created
by Europeans and y'all still knowingly participate in some shit that you know has been hijacked and subverted makes it even worse. But keep forgiving and turning the each other cheek. Maybe one of these days white Jesus and his followers will just get tired of slapping the shit out of you.
Ephesians 6:5
Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ.

You could never understand
Cause you think you come from slavery. You think these people superior
I KNOW they’re not . I know I don’t. You hate yourself. You consider your complexion a burden. Niggas(I use that term generally) got 1/2 times of me saying something before I correct a behavior for them.
@Lurk Rambis you highlighted that but did you make it to the 3rd paragraph. ain’t you in the military? I’d never sell them mufuckas my time. You don’t know who you talking to
You suckas consider it justice if the same system that disregards your life punishes someone who acts accordingly. That’s weirdo shit to me and I still love y’all

Niggas in here blaming religion and all type of irrational behavior, complaining, shooting at anybody who don’t think like them
There’s no major religion that’s a “white religion”
But that’s how low you think of yourself
All religions come from you. They perverted it at best. You niggas disrespecting people on your side cause you don’t want to step up and be a leader.

Does the shit you say really make sense to you bruh? So when white people started making shitty Hip Hop, should black people have abandoned Hip Hop? That would have been stupid. Yes, white people took Christianity and used it and still use it to push hateful and evil rhetoric. Last time, I checked, most black people aren't worshipping in KKK churches. Most Black Christians are in mostly black churches worshipping and serving largely according to custom developed in the black community. I'm not even saying blacks are perfect Christians, but if you really think the average Black Christian is the same as the average White Christian, you should probably just be quiet because you don't know what you're talking about.
And we've been over the Ephesians verses before, but since ya'll love to bring them up, let's do it again. When the Bible talks about slaves, it is not talking about chattel slavery like what was practiced in America. It is talking about something closer to indentured servitude. In many cases, the people who are servants were there because of their own actions either because of some debt they incurred or crime they committed. It's basically like he telling a prisoner to obey his C.O. Now again, you may still think that's stupid. That's fine, but put the shit in context. When you read the whole chapter, Paul is simply making the point that Christians should behave like Christians regardless of their station. He's not saying that Christians should happily take on any abuse or wrongdoing without standing up the way some of you imply.

Comprehension...
Go back and read your post. You imply that the verses were speaking of Jesus in the physical. When the verses are actually about the nobleman in the parable that Jesus is telling. The nobleman is analogous to Christ but you made it seem like the person in the parable was addressing Christ when he wasn't.
The subject of the parable is the coming of the kingdom. You obviously googled so you already know that.
You were wrong in your initial post. It's really that simple.

All parables Jesus told were in direct correlation to real life happening around him. He wasn’t out there just freestyling telling stories just because. He was making a point about himself.
You can’t run from it.

Refusing to admit your mistake doesn't change the fact that the verses were misrepresented in your initial post. Which is my only point.

I didn’t make a mistake. You didn’t know what you were talking about. I knew clearly what I was saying when I said it.
It’s you who changed what you said with that “He wasn’t talking about himself, but he was talking about himself, but he wasn’t talking about himself...” ass shit because you didn’t understand the parable.
