Proclaiming the truth requires several things , but three main things must be present: I must know the truth, someone must be willing to at least hear me speak the truth, and I must have the courage to do so.

Not necessarily. forgiveness just means letting it go. not letting what they did harden your heart. but that doesn’t mean subjecting yourself to their mess again. you’re just not allowing it to become a grudge.

Just like all the questions on here, it depends on the particular situation and what the vote is for. If there is a definitive evil that must be defeated, and in many cases there could be, then yes you have a duty.
