Answer 4

Depends sometimes i do but sometimes i dont

Answer 5

nopesssssssssssss

Answer 6

Yes I do.

Answer 7

sometimes

Answer 8

It depends on what that person did.

Answer 9

i agree It depends on what they did but most of the time yes

Answer 10

Yes. There are VERY few cases where I would say no. If its from somebody mentally screwed up, no. But if its just a mistake... A person can change. if a person is willing to change then yes, always.

Answer 11

Depends on what the person did to make you give them a second chance. for example my ex cheated on me asked for a second chance but i found out it was more than one time so i said no. but if its just a simple i messed up and said something i shouldn't have or did something i should have once then yes

Answer 12

it really depends on the situation... but in theory everyone deserves a second chance since we all make mistakes, but should any more chances be given to you when you already had the chance to prove yourself right, but did not? maybe not... therefore, in my opinion a second chance is ok, but a second chance at your second chance is a no no :P

Answer 13

@kl0723 right, there's no such thing as 3rd,4th,or 5th chances

Answer 14

@mathgeek27 yes... but that's just my opinion, if you already had a chance to make things right... you do not deserve another chance to just make things wrong again :)

Answer 21

"One good deed is not enough to redeem a man of a lifetime of wickedness."
Commodore James Norrington

"But it is enough to condemn it?"
Captain Jack Sparrow

We're all humans, we invariably fail, fall, fight, cry, die. No matter how much we try, we always end up doing the bad thing we keep telling ourselves we won't do anymore. From my personal experience in the RADF I can honestly say that the things I have seen are so terrifying that they keep me from sleeping at night even now that I am a civilian safe at home. I guess the analogy I am making is that your sins follow you everywhere and are always in the back of your mind hindering your ability to perform at your best; making you doubt yourself. A degree of self-doubt is good as it keeps us from being arrogant; but to let that fear rule your mind - and to limit your interaction and actions - is pure madness. I, for one, put up the facade that I am this amazingly intelligent guy who is capable of about anything (excluding mathematics) when the reality is that without the blessings given to me by God, I would have nothing, in fact, I would cease to exist. God in his grace gives us what we don't deserve and in his mercy doesn't give us what we do deserve. If God saw how truly impure I was I would be ashed to stand before him. But he does see, and he still loves me. And I think that's next to impossible because I have done unthinkable things in the RADF. But its true; and even if God is the only one who will ever know me and still love me regardless then I will be fine with that. So, I personally don't believe in second chances because I know once I get a second chance I will fail and ask for a third and then a fourth and so on. Luckily for me, God does believe in second chances and when asked he said you should forgive someone not 7 times but 70 times 7 times. I try as hard as I can to be a gentleman who demonstrates propriety and decorum and chivalry..."but that does not absolve me of my other sins" Commodore James Norrington.

Answer 23

Kafir Norri<33 Yer amazing

Answer 24

It depends on who it's to and what happened. If it's a family or dear friend and there was some fight then possibly yeah it depends on what they did and why they did. if it's a stranger nope and I don't know with strangers you don't even know them so you really have no judge on them fully but from the ugly attitude and actions they show you get easily tempted to hate them and not wanna be forgiving *shrug* bad habit of us all I guess but yeah only for friends and family in my mind. People get scared or are just stupid or pressured or confused so they make bad choices that are horrible and hurt people but honestly it hurts everyone equally in a fight or bad moment so honestly making up would just make things way better but unfortunately some people can't let go of things like mistakes and fights and hold onto the bad past and point emotional guns at each other or just are afraid to have contact with each other I'm like that I honestly can't forgive a lot of people even family and friends if they step past my boundaries and go to far and aggravate me or hurt me dearly I have a bad habit of distancing myself from those who have hurt me and I know they didn't mean it. (If that's the case either way I just distance myself) But if they didn't mean it and they are sincerely sorry then yeah I'll consider giving second chances and making up. Usually in fights I try to be the bigger man and apologize but if they keep flapping their mouths and being crude nope not even gonna. Now if it's the case of me doing something bad and hurting someone I wouldn't really want a second chance if they don't wanna make up and I wouldn't really want to still when I screw up something I beat myself up and feel horrible and all that nonsense haha. Like I said earlier once someone hurts me or I hurt them I sorta feel like a burden and distance myself far away. :/ So yeah I believe in second chances only for family and friends depending on the situation and for me myself if I did something wrong...nope not really still depending on the situation. :P Sorry if this is bad advice if you we're looking for advice from this question the others answers would probably be more helpful.

Answer 25

@Pocarii, no your answer was very good! But personally,by by own nature I am very forgiving. Since God forgave me and loved me so much he sent his SON to die for me, I will keep on forgiving you as many times as you do wrong to me. I don't like the idea of carrying around a huge burden of holding a grudge against someone.

Answer 26

But that doesn't mean I'm gonna let u just walk all over me and be your bff right away. I forgive you to me means yeah i forgive u, but right now I need some space to think about if this relationship is healthy for me, and should we continue this relationship

Answer 27

Yes I do. If they end up messing up or be betraying me, then, oh well. Such is life. But If I didn't give someone a chance to redeem themself, then what would be thepoint of forgiveness?

Answer 28

Yeah second chances are good to a point, God died and carried all the sins of the world, whoever believes in him shall have eternal life. People commonly mistake this for "oh, whatever I do God will forgive and I can keep sinning." Although God has limitless grace and mercy, he will not continue to forgive a false convert or untrue repentance. For this person hs a hardened Heart, this is also why there are the unforgiven sins. It's not that the sins (such as Blasphemy is one) can't be forgiven, rather that they won't because the person who commits these sins will never truly be sorry and try to make a change. Also Faith with out works is dead. If someone just believes in God that is different than having Faith, the Devil himself has the most belief in God, all Muslims know there is a God, the difference is the person who trusts God, and Allows him to become their Lord which is the difference in Faith and believing. A God is just the respected figure people know of, Lord is the title given to those things which influence your every decision and makes you do the things you do. If a person wants a second chance that's fine and all, but unless they actually use the chance to change, then they definitely don't deserve another do-over and another do-over after that.

Answer 29

Yes, @grray7 but also if that person is truly sorry they will not only,ask God to forgive them, but repent and not continue to commit the same sin over and over again and expect God to keep forgiving them, for God says in the scripture, "Go and sin no more"
but overall, I really like your answer:)

Answer 30

Yeah that's kinda what I was trying to say. People of True repentance have a change, they understand their wrong doing, and change it.

Answer 31

Amen

Answer 32

@mathgeek72 u r right ...when GOD forgives us after our every mistake then why we don't forgive his people....GOD likes those people who help his fellow being and forgive and talk in the smooth way....

I think u should forgive him...but one thing remember u must have care from him yourself because it will be easy for him to do again easily as we do mistake.... Because some people are good in this world and some people are bad...we must take care from such kind of people yourself....


I think u must give him second Chance..

Answer 33

@Haseeb96 i don't understand ur point

Answer 34

Actually I m mad...I like to fall in the love of GOD because it give me that pleasure that I can't obtain anywhere from the world....


But my pleasure is become more and more when I forgive his fellow being and after help his fellow beings
If his fellow being hurt me I start to pray for them then I get more pleasure....so forgiveness is the act of GOD u must forgive him....but must be eyes on him.

Answer 35

So basically what you said was; "Because God has forgiven us, we should forgive our peers,right?" I agree with you, we should forgive others for the wrongs they have done to us,and as I said earlier, that doesn't mean we have to be best buddies with that person and let them continually hurt us over and over again. If it's a toxic relationship, you shouldn't talk to that person anymore

Answer 36

Do you understand my point?

Answer 37

Good interpretation @mathgeek27. ;)

Answer 38

thanks @grray7 ! :)

Answer 39

NP

Answer 40

Yes u are right


If u must not have any relation with him..any more if he hurt u again and again....
