The brother of a murder victim shocked a courtroom on Wednesday as he offered an overtly religious act of forgiveness, urging the killer to turn to Jesus Christ. But you wouldnt know that from the network morning show coverage on Thursday. Today, Good Morning America and CBS This Morning skipped the appeal to faith, instead portraying it as more generalized forgiveness. Later in the day, View co-host Joy Behar rejected the call to grace and instead insisted, I think to hold onto the rage gives you strength.
Amber Guyger shot Botham Jean in 2018 when she accidentally entered his apartment, thinking it was her own. After her conviction for murder, Brandt Jean, the brother, took the stand and told Guyger this: I want the best for you because I know that's exactly what Botham would want for you. Give your life to Christ. I think giving your life to Christ is the best thing Botham would want for you.

For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.
WHOOPI GOLDBERG: You know, sometimes it hits you. You think, now that’s that’s Christian. That’s that is a Christian because how many people call themselves that, and will allow things to go on. But here’s this kid who’s lost his brother. He says, I don’t want you to rot in hell. I’m not — I want your life to be good. I want you to have a good life. My brother’s not, but I want you to have a good life, and I forgive you and can I give her a hug?
It was incredibly beautiful. I was sobbing as I watched her fly into his arms, there could not have been a dry eye in that courtroom. His brother, and God, must be so proud of him. What a generous and gracious heart.
Mark 11:26
But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.

I totally agree and you put it perfectly. This young man showed what being Christ-like is all about......about walking in faith and talking in faith and proving that faith by such an act as he displayed on that stand. God bless him, his family and yes, Amber Guyger.
And that's what makes her the person she is today.
I was watching Court TV after Brandt Jean made his statement forgiving Amber Guyger.
One of the attorneys said this: “All religions have forgiveness in their creed”.
The leftists were shocked when Brandt Jean took the air out of the desired riots that they wanted to happen in Dallas no matter what the verdict was.
The leftists are finding that not all blacks are marching with the Democrat Drumbeat.
Oh my goodness. God bless this courageous young man.

Let the media ignore it. The story, with video, is all over Facebook, and is being shared a dozen times an hour.
Behar’s anger and resulting bitterness are reflected in her face. Her “strength” makes her uglier every day.
The judge did hug her as well. They both did. I saw it. I thought it was strange that the judge would hug the convicted.
My dental assistant mentioned this to me during my cleaning. Wanted to see this. Thanks for posting.
My son is preaching on “grace” this Sun. I’ll show him this.
Without a race war, the democrats will lose.
Without a sex war, the democrats will lose.
Without a war against the christian religious, the democrats will lose.
Without a war against the rich, the democrats will lose.
Without a war against illegal aliens, the democrats will lose.
Without a war against America, the democrats will lose.
They CANNOT show a black forgiving a white, a black forgiving a white cop, a Christian forgiving the murderer, a male forgiving a female!
But if they imply a “judge” is hugging a white cop, the race war begins again!
Awesome!
“””They CANNOT show a black forgiving a white, a black forgiving a white cop, a Christian forgiving the murderer, a male forgiving a female!
But if they imply a judge is hugging a white cop, the race war begins again!”””
The Leftist Race War Machine got clobbered yesterday.
Because after Brandt Jean forgave Amber Guyger, the “black female judge” hugged the white cop.
Here is National Public Radio with their attempt to stir up the troops.
The former Dallas police officer was sentenced to 10 years in prison for murdering Botham Jean. Guyger killed Jean in his apartment after mistaking it for her own. She faced up to 99 years in prison ...
Thanks Robert A Cook PE.
Uh, the entire premise of this article is that they did show it.
