1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 Does biblical forgiveness require repentance? And have Christians sometimes confused forgiveness with simply “letting go” of what someone has done? Teasi Cannon joins Josh Klein and Tim Stratton to discuss her book Counterfeit Forgiveness and challenge some common assumptions about forgiveness in the church. They explore the difference between biblical and therapeutic forgiveness, whether Christians are called to forgive unrepentant offenders, the relationship between forgiveness and reconciliation, and why unconditional forgiveness can sometimes place an additional burden on victims. The conversation also tackles some of the toughest biblical and theological objections: What about Jesus saying, “Father, forgive them”? Does requiring repentance turn forgiveness into a work? Should Christians forgive in the same way God forgives? And what should we say to someone who simply isn’t ready to forgive yet? 📖 Buy Counterfeit Forgiveness on Amazon and Leave a Review https://a.co/d/0fQQ8Mrr 🌐 Explore Teasi Cannon’s website https://www.teasicannon.com/ ▶️ Find Teasi on YouTube&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;@teasicannon9660&amp;nbsp; ➡️ CHAPTERS ⬅️ 00:00 Introduction &amp;nbsp;04:34 Biblical vs. Therapeutic Forgiveness 11:19 Can You Forgive Without Repentance? 18:31 What Does Genuine Repentance Look Like? 24:40 Why Is Forgiveness So Emotional? 30:57 Loving Your Enemies Is Not the Same as Forgiveness 36:10 How Unconditional Forgiveness Can Hurt Victims 42:00 What If You’ve Practiced “Counterfeit Forgiveness”? 46:51 “Father, Forgive Them” — What About Jesus on the Cross? 52:13 Is Repentance a Work?
