Might I say that the fallen have experienced something no other has. Forgiveness from God. In addition to that, we are a living testimony to the rest of the believers to allow them to learn to forgive. Yes, I believe that will be our living teaching. No one can learn from teaching better than experience. We must take the blunt of the response and give the example of what it means to forgive. If we cannot forgive we cannot be forgiven. Let us never think it is okay to allow other Christians to put us down or condemn us. Living like Christ did, as having no father, is our destiny no matter what the world thinks. Our testimony has to be able to teach others the principle of forgiveness and, also. living among the forgiven.
