Forgiveness and Trust Are Not the Same

Hebrew Truth vs Greek-Christian Lies About Unlimited Forgiveness

📜 From the Hebrew & Aramaic Scrolls

📜 YHWH's Standards for Forgiveness

Forgiveness belongs to YHWH alone — He turns back judgment only when a wrongdoer turns from evil and does what is right (Ezekiel 18:21–23; Jonah 3:10).
Do not walk with the wicked — Blessed is the one who avoids their counsel (Psalm 1:1). Separation is the command, not reconciliation without change.
Leave the presence of a fool — When there's no knowledge in a person, walk away (Proverbs 14:7). No requirement to keep them close.
Remove evil from among you — Torah commands to cut off the evildoer (Deuteronomy 13:5; 17:7; 19:19; 22:24). There's no "forgive and forget" for ongoing harm.
Do not hate your brother in your heart (Leviticus 19:17–18) — This means no secret vengeance or scheming, but it does not mean to trust again without repentance.
Make no covenant with the unrighteous — Don't bind yourself to those who do wrong; it will become a trap (Exodus 23:32–33).

👉 There is no law in the Hebrew scrolls that says, "forgive everyone no matter what." That idea came from later Greek-Christian doctrine, not from YHWH's Torah or the original Aramaic record.

📜 If a Messenger Changes YHWH's Word

Do not add or take away — Keep the command exactly as it was given (Deuteronomy 4:2; 12:32).
Test the prophet — Even if signs come true, if they tell you to follow other mighty ones or change the command, do not listen (Deuteronomy 13:1–5).
YHWH's word stands forever — It does not shift, bend, or evolve (Psalm 119:89; Isaiah 40:8).
YHWH does not change — His commands and His standards are the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow (Malachi 3:6).

If someone says "you have to forgive no matter what" — but they cannot show it in Torah — they are adding to YHWH's word. Reject them.

⚠️ Critical Truth:

If any messenger — even one called "Messiah" — changes the Law, he cannot be YHWH's messenger.
The Torah is the test. If a man teaches contrary to Moses, he fails the test (Deuteronomy 13:1–5).
Signs, wonders, or claims of divinity do not overrule YHWH's own words.

🧠 About Holding a Grudge

Holding a grudge is not evil.

A "grudge" is a memory with a boundary — it means you don't forget betrayal. It means you don't trust people who keep doing wrong.

It can be used for good:

To protect your family
To avoid future harm
To stay clean from wickedness

תִּטֹּר

titor

The Hebrew word used in Leviticus 19:18 is תִּטֹּר (titor) — from the root נָטַר, which means to guard, to keep. In context, it means don't preserve anger for vengeance.

But it does not mean:

Forget what was done
Restore broken trust
Reconcile without proof of change

YHWH Himself guards wrath (Nahum 1:2) — but only He may avenge. You are told not to carry revenge, not to erase reality.

✅ Hebrew Wisdom vs Greek Deception

Hebrew Truth:

Forgiveness requires repentance
Trust must be earned
Separate from the wicked
Guard against fools
Remember past harm for protection
YHWH alone judges and forgives

Greek-Christian Lies:

"Forgive everyone no matter what"
"Turn the other cheek always"
"Forget and reconcile"
"Don't hold grudges"
"Trust again immediately"
"You must forgive to be forgiven"

"Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of YHWH, and on his law he meditates day and night." — Psalm 1:1-2

"Leave the presence of a fool, for there you do not meet words of knowledge." — Proverbs 14:7

"You shall not add to the word that I command you, nor take from it, that you may keep the commandments of YHWH your God that I command you." — Deuteronomy 4:2

📖 What the Torah Commands You to Do

Deuteronomy 13:5 (Hebrew numbering 13:6 in some scrolls):

"And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death, because he has spoken rebellion against YHWH your God — who brought you out of the land of Egypt and redeemed you out of the house of slavery — to turn you away from the way which YHWH your God commanded you to walk in. So you shall put away the evil from your midst."

Plain meaning:

A prophet who changes the Law is a rebel against YHWH.
YHWH commands the people to remove him permanently.
This is not optional. It is covenant law.

🪓 Final Word

In the scrolls, refusing to trust someone again is called wisdom, not hate.

Walking away is called obedience, not bitterness.

Holding memory is called discernment, not sin.

Trust is earned.

Forgiveness belongs to YHWH.

The Torah does not ask you to be a fool.
