If a guest steals something should I forgive them? How should I act? Christanon 12/13/18 (Thu) 02:00:24 9b899f No.740489

I have two legitimate reasons to believe that these two guests are stealing, I just don't know how to act.

Is it possible to kick them out while forgiving them? Should I take the parable about the pagan king and servant in mind? They're also stealing from my Mother, so is it a self-less reason?

>Is it possible to kick them out while forgiving them?

If it's something small and replaceable, give them fair warning. If it's a priceless heirloom or something expensive, then yeah don't hesitate to kick them out with forgiveness.

Our religion needs less cuckoldry when it comes to this kinda thing. Be the shining example we know and Christ knows you can be.

Forgiving someone does not mean you don't want justice. In fact, if they steal and go unpunished, they are more likely to do it again and sin again.

Call the Police.

>Should I let them keep robbing me?

>Should I also allow them to rob my mother?

>Should I also forgive them whilst they rob me?

Are you serious? Kick them out.

What did they steal? Who are they to you? There needs to be more context to the situation.

I walked into my room and noticed the pc was turned on and was on the login screen. The same day my mom was calling the bank, someone got on her account and bought stuff from the web.

They first came late august to stay for 3 weeks because of financial difficulties. They've been here since, while from what I heard they've been having really bad luck. But I still struggle to believe that in almost 4 months they couldn't find a job in Dallas.

I could go on how I dislike because they've been messy and that. I guess I've held back so much anger out of shame of the sins I've done that I accidentally also held back righteous anger.

If someone loves you, they don't abuse your trust.
