Most often, human beings forgive people for what they perceived as offenses against them which out of the offenders' acts of soberness and repentance may necessitate an individual to declare forgiveness.
In every human system, the customary, magistrate, high, appeal and supremer courts have jurisdiction to hear and judge cases.
However, most times the judgments emanating from these courts are controversial.
Religious books unanimously agree that human beings must not be judgmental to the level of condemning others, most especially when perceptions are different on the same issue at stake.
We must rather live to tolerate one another and to role model virtues to be able to correct perceived aberrations from others.
Divine judgment from God is justified by the claim of been our creator most especially on the ways we live our lives justly or unjustly, sinfully or sinlessly, crime-prone and crime-free.
In a situation wherein lies are peddled to live comfortable lives, the law of natural justice or karma or retribution is bound to take emerge.
We can now appreciate the scriptural submissions that our activities here on earth with the interplay of very many forcers surrounding us deviate us from the path of righteousness for a test or assignment to be assessed by the almighty God our creator.
Divine judgment, therefore, should be seen as eternal and more grievous than any judgment human beings can give themselves.
Divine judgment should not be perceived in the negative sense, that is as a disaster or misfortune inflicted by God as punishment.
Judgment may favor the good ones and it may not favor the bad ones before God.
The scripture upholding our religious beliefs would only remain an article of test on the way we keep to it And live by it.
Human judgment is always bereft of divine substance, for the judge to be able to reflect into the past genealogical order before passing judgment.
To err is human and to forgive is divine.
