Forgiveness is only by the grace of God through faith in Christ. "Good" people are still not perfect and therefore not worthy of eternal life, no matter who they themselves forgive or do not forgive. Why is it that so few are willing to accept that no one comes to the Father but by Christ? So few people have ever taken the time to slowly digest the New Testament in its' entirety. It would answer so many questions if they did. Never expected Billy Graham to dive into universalism, though...

"Judge not....???" Are we seriously supposed to accept (and allow the people we love to accept) the teachings of people such as Hinn, Osteen and Meyer lest we fall into judging? No. We are actually commanded to judge, and we are instructed to contend earnestly for the faith. If warning others of false messages is wrong, both Jesus and the Apostle Paul have a lot of explaining to do!
