Maybe I haven't paid close enough attention, but when and to whom did Newt ask for forgiveness?

I am more than willing to forgive one who is repentant, but I haven't seen that from Newt.......and I've seen a lot of him.

If you have a link or quote to indicate that what he did was sin, I'd like to see it.

I'm serious. The moral infidelity is a BIG problem for me when I look at a presidential candidate. It goes to character, commitment and honor, and I can't let it slide.

So none of your friends are divorced? And you constantly remind them how immoral they are? And of course, you never have them over for dinner.

Numerous members of my family have had affairs. Some divorced. Some didn't. The divorced ones remarried...happily.

Just so you have the right perspective concerning Newt:

“Jacob was a cheater, Peter had a temper, David had an affair, Noah got drunk, Jonah ran from God, Paul was a murderer, Gideon was insecure, Miriam was a gossiper, Martha was a worrier, Thomas was a doubter, Elijah was moody, Moses stuttered, Zaccheus was short, Abraham was old, Lazarus was dead....”

God doesn’t call the qualified, He qualifies the CALLED!

He doesn’t need to ask our forgiveness. He needs to ask God for forgiveness...
