If you are doing bad things against a man, then do you think you're great with that?
Do you think, God will not condemn you?
You sinned you ask God for forgiveness, but you didn't ask sorry to the man you have been treated badly?
When you ask forgiveness to the Lord... You must surrender everything...no matter what it takes. Do not return to your old life where you are wicked and evil. Always pray to God to guide your way.
You will be forgiven, but not forgotten by people... It is because when you only think forgiveness is just you pray, and think you will be immediately forgiven? You have also to Act . You repeatedly asking for forgiveness but you still do the same mistake. How will you be forgiven if you don't want to change?
Some are misunderstood this, just because there is God, they ignore people. You know, God give us heart to feel each other, and He wanted us to reconnect each other. And if human forgive personally to each other, is God wouldn't be happy for that? Some people thought, that even they can't say sorry to a person personally they were find peace. But Sometimes, if you don't say sorry to the person, their hatred will be getting bigger, until it causes of serious cases.
Heart some time may lie. You can say "Yes, I forgive him." but deep inside when no eyes and ears and brain... feel the same tantrums in heart.
God knows our heart even though we didn't feel the guilt or tantrums.
