37 Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven: 38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again. (Luke 6:37-38 KJV)
This verse points out one of the laws of God in all things. Whether it is carnal or spiritual, we reap what we sow (Galatians 6:7-8). If we sow bad things, we reap bad things. If we sow good things, we reap good things. If we judge others, we will be judged. If we don’t forgive others, we will not be forgiven.
Also we harvest in proportion to how much we sow (2 Corinthians 9:6). It does not make sense to the carnal man to give to God. Man’s way of thinking is that if we give to the Church or God’s work, then it leaves less for us to spend on ourselves. If we didn’t have a God, than that would be true. But we do have a God, and He blesses us in a big way, when we give to His Kingdom here on earth. Many Christians have a hard time giving to God’s work, but God is faithful to reward those who give to Him. The Kingdom of God works on the principal of planting a seed, waiting, and then harvesting. Most of us humans don’t like to wait, and get anxious when the harvest doesn’t come immediately. When you learn patience, and take the time to plant your seeds and wait, then you will have a harvest, just like a farmer does. Be patient. Thank you Lord for all our blessings (Ephesians 1:3).

What if we start forgiving Pedophiles? Like the ones who are required to kill children while brutalizing them for Adrenochrome, a pigment obtained by the oxidation of adrenaline (epinephrine) within the Pineal Gland.
The inhumane stress that can shut down a brain in shock is extracted for what is known as the Fountain of Youth. Getting high could be a side affect, but if extracted at the time of death it's the magic pill to human rejuvenation.
These folks do not need my forgiveness and patience. Yet this goes on today because we turn the other cheek.
Sexualizing our children with homosexual GROOMING in public schools because forgivness is more important than a child's innocence.
It's like this book is written to help pedophiles stay in power.
