Biblical teaching on forgiveness

Someone asked me to summarize my theology of forgiveness.

• We need to forgive people who are truly ignorant of their sins.
• If someone repents we are obligated to forgive them.
• Repentance includes sorrow, restoration, recompense.
• If someone does not repent, we are obliged to confront and rebuke them.
• If someone refuses to repent after confrontation, there is a process that needs to be followed through until the end.
• If someone does not repent at the end of the process, they are handed over to God. for vengeance, we are forbidden to take vengeance ourselves on the unrepentant.
• God stands with the victim, not the perpetrator of the offense.
• God’s goal is reconciliation of persons but this reconciliation can not happen without repentance.
