And he added: “a big heart doesn’t get entangled in other peoples lives, it doesn’t condemn but forgives and forgets” as “God has forgiven and forgotten my sins”.
Now how many of you really believe that??? How many of your were ever taught that??? I would venture to say none of you...
How many of you expect to stand before the judgment seat and when the records are opened, you have a clean slate??? All of your sins are forgiven and forgotten...None of you...
Why does your pope say he will have a clean slate but none of you will???
Why do you say he says that?
Now how many of you really believe that??? How many of your were ever taught that??? I would venture to say none of you...
I do not expect to have a clean slate but if i do not forgive those who trespass against me i can not expect my sins to be forgiven.

“Then the master called the servant in. ‘You wicked servant,’ he said, ‘I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to.
33
Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?’

In anger his master handed him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed.
At the same time i do understand that this may not cover the meaning of what the pope was saying.
1John ch1
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
John puts it two ways
have no sin
have not sined
it refers to past sins and present sins
I believe Christians will be completely rid of their sins only when they die and their bodies are turned back to dust.
