He’s truly an example Whenever I think I can’t forgive someone I think of how he forgave the men who ruthlessly tortured him for two years.

[@funnydylan9834]

0:48 Amen. We are all brothers no matter which side. Not just blood but from bond. And sometimes, even the enemy can become your greatest friend. RIP to those who served and died in WW2. And bless those still with us today. ✝️🙏🏻❤️‍🔥

[@hallowedjuggler350]

There are no true enemies just strangers but even then like you said we are all brothers and sisters so matter what. We all came from the same place we have the same hands same eyes same heart. We should learn to love unconditionally than to hate illogically

[@thebun2901]

He did something i could never do. Forgive someone who has wronged me.

[@MrGruffteddybear]

Forgiveness is not about the other person. Forgiveness of those who did you wrong allows you to move past the trauma and heal.

[@sscot720]

Yes, but it is about Both.. both the one forgiving And the wrongdoer

[@MrGruffteddybear]

@@sscot720 True, but sometimes you can't face the one who did you wrong. Like the Bird. But the forgiveness he gave him in his heart allowed him to move on.

[@stephenhagen234]

Forgiveness is releasing someone from a debt owed to you. We love because He first loved us. We forgive others because He forgives us of much more than we'll ever know!

He is a better man than me. I think sometimes I would rather drag the people who hurt my daughters to hell with me than let them off

[@Shadowdoc26]

I don’t think they’d torture women. Plus women weren’t in combat roles back then. But I get your point. Someone did that to me or someone I knew, at best I’d have a staring contest into the abyss of their soul. At worst, sue for an eye

It's like God performs a spiritual surgery and removes those negative things, and puts in his good things instead. It cannot be done on our own power.

[@shonefiggins406]

It just goes… it’s spiritual in nature. It’s God. I can’t explain it but the weight lifted off of my shoulders…..

It starts of by thinking they aren’t that different from you. They were indoctrinated and you would have done the same in their shoes. Lastly, you learn the cycle of violence needs to stop and you would rather see your children play and have fun with their children than die fighting in some useless war.

As a US Senator, John McCain travelled to Vietnam with an official delegation after we’d granted unified Vietnam Most Favored Nation trade status and otherwise normalized relations with the country. Asked as a courtesy whether he wanted to see anyone from his time in the infamous Hanoi Hilton prison complex, McCain stated pointedly that he did NOT want his old chief jailer - who was still alive - to be presented to him. He said it was because if that happened, he (McCain) could not guarantee he would remain responsible for his actions.

[@charlessaint7926]

My great uncle, Corporal William Lee McMillan, was a POW of the Japanese for nearly three years. Captured on Corregidor Island he lost his eyesight and was paralyzed from the waist down by malaria. He would be rescued at Old Bilibid Prison in Manila, February 1945. Like so many, he survived in body, barely. Mentally he was broken. What's worse, his nephew, my grandfather, who also served in the war, came home with a Japanese bride! Most of the family was either cold or outright hostile to Grandma, and later my father for being half-Japanese. Grandma described Uncle Bill as a quiet man who never raised his voice at her, called her names, or blamed her for what happened to him, but he wouldn't stay in the same room with her for very long. Maybe he couldn't forgive the Japanese, but he could at least accept that the war was over.

Mandela once said “Forgiveness liberates the soul, that’s why it’s such a powerful weapon”. Zamparrini led several of these men to Jesus when he stood before them and forgave them

[@memelord6335]

Any one here from The Boiled one phenomenon? I was watching that analog horror video and with noticing many connections from the video to this story such as the last name Zamperini and although not to the exact detail matter of fact details are different but the grand scheme of the details of the story are both the same from both stories for example Zamperini was tortured by a Japanese soldier, was tortured for years after the fact by the memories and was able to save himself by turning to God ,while in the boiled one phenomenon a man with the same last name sees a broadcast that was hijacked by some type of Supernatural being causing over 900 individuals in America to be affected by sleep paralysis and to see this creature in their minds and even hear his voice for years after the fact and although paralyzed and still being tortured by this creature the Zamperini within the analog horror series still has faith in God and that God will protect him from this just like the real Zamperini did and although not confirmed this does seem to be the case because compared to other people suffering the same condition within the show I believe it is described a little that the Zamperini within this show is in a slightly better condition than most others, it's obviously up to anybody reading this but I highly recommend you check out the boiled one phenomenon I never thought anybody could take a story like this and somehow turn it into an analog horror and still make it work and so far in my opinion as a Christian man ,that it has yet to do anything disrespectful towards christianity kr anything too disrespectful coming from the analog Horror Show

[@kurtlikesoldmilwaukee9087]

I have a difficult time with forgiveness with people that keep committing the same sins, like they just dont care, its the sins of greed, and pride. I'm sorry, but it's very difficult.

[@TazHall]

You can forgive them, but you don't have to hang around them and experience their continued evil. Guard and protect your heart too. You wouldn't stand in close proximity to someone who keeps swinging their fists around only to get hit. You got to stand back. That's just wisdom, forgive and love them from a distance. If there's an opportunity to do good to them, then do it. But you don't have to hang out with them. Louie followed Jesus, who gave him the power and love to do it.

[@kurtlikesoldmilwaukee9087]

[@samuelsalazar1976]

Such a awesome blessing moment 😢 🇺🇸 that Zamperini has done.

[@stephenhagen234]

Forgiveness takes time, depending upon the offense, and a working of God's grace within our heart. We need the will to forgive. It's not an excusing the wrong. It is being willing to let God deal with the offense. He will heal the brokenness when we pursue Him and ask Him.

When people tell me to Forgive & Forget. I tell them I'm neither Jesus nor do I have Alzheimers.

[@hallowedjuggler350]

We are all people, humans, a single species, the last of our kind on this rock and maybe the only thing like us in the whole universe. And yet we harm each other and we never forgive. We would be a better people in a better place if we of course stop the hurting but also learn to forgive or at least move on and let go even with the most worse things we can possibly do we should forgive. This doesn’t mean no punishment for everything since people who do great evil should go to jail and repent for many years but we should be able to forgive them as well we should drag ourselves through the dirt because of hate or resentment

[@TazHall]

You literally need God's power and Grace inside of you to do that kind of forgiveness. It's God-tier forgiveness. Zamperini received Jesus as his Savior at a Billy Graham crusade, and as a result received a lot of healing for the post-traumatic stress. That plus the power of God gave him enabled him to go back and love and forgive his enemies. You just have to be willing and make the decision to forgive, and God will help you to do it. You will still have the bad memories, the hurt and the pain, but when you make the decision to walk and forgiveness despite all the bad feelings, that's when the healing comes in. I had to beg God to help me forgive others and bring me to a place where the memories didn't hurt anymore. We have to forgive others if not God will not forgive us. Our forgiveness is not greater than God's. Jesus forgave the people who tortured him and put him on the cross.

War criminals should be prosecuted. Mutsuhiro Watanabe should have been held responsible for his crimes, but wasn't. The world ignored the evil he perpetrated, allowed him to lead a normal life. You were a monster? That's okay. You can live out your long life deluded by your enemy and your countrymen into believing you were right all along.

[@Sam-kh2zh]

I agree completely that Watanabe should have been prosecuted as a war criminal. But he got lucky with the decision to grant amnesty to the Japanese. With Cold War going on, and the U.S. needing an ally in the Far East, the decision to grant amnesty was a political one to appease the Japanese. Justice was put on the back burner.

[@stephenhagen234]

That's how God changes the world---one life at a time. It all starts with Jesus Christ. He is the answer. He is the solution. He changes the human heart and gives life where there is death. He is what we desperately need. Now, and forever!
