Revelation 12:2 21Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against 10The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?” the false prophet are. And they will be tormented (basanizo) day and night forever and ever.

I forgave you all that debt because you begged me. 33Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?’ 34And his master was angry, and delivered him to the torturers until he should pay all that was due to him. 35“So My heavenly Father also will do to you if each of you, from his heart, does not forgive his brother his trespasses.” Matthew 18:21-35 1 God desires that everyone forgives everyone for Conclusion 2 God describes people who don’t forgive as The Forgiveness Verifier: “Would you say you have experienced torment?” Since Jesus reveals that unforgiveness always results in being delivered to the “torturers” 3 God delivers everyone who chooses not to forgive to the then asking the person “if they experience torment” (the result of torture) is the correct Exception 1: The Window of protocol to verify that the person indeed has unforgiveness in their life.
