One thing my father taught me: beware of happy, sociable, charming people that you know nothing about how they earn their livelyhood. Chances are you are dealing with a snake, charming people before they bite them.
The worst thing about the Madoff story is how badly the SEC botched the first few investigations after receiving a very thorough analysis of the red flags from the tipster.

Oh, although I have heard that saying a million times in my life, I just this month learned what it really means. Someone offered me an opportunity and I took it but it seemed he didn't want anything in return. Oh my gosh, then I found out 7 or 8 men were involved in this one scam of mostly overcharging women, some even my friends, of thousands of dollars. He does this regularly apparently. It all started out innocently enough, then he got obnoxious when I called him on it. This morning I reported him to the authorities. Funny how this video popped up. lol.
I read the book- from the library so I would not give her a penny. She took off on a fun vacation, and left her baby with her husband, whom she knew was profoundly depressed. She ignored his phone calls for hours, the night before he killed himself. 100% cold-hearted snake. She's a big part of his wanting to die. At least he got away from her.
Never knew that, that’s very sad. I actually have said I feel bad for her husband maybe he didn’t know, and felt the shame from this whole thing. Really sad. But I will say one thing unfortunately as hard as it is with mental illness people need to seek help, because I’ve heard this statement made before with couples and it’s not fully fair to put that on another person although compassion is important
I read Stephanie's book. While I could feel pity for her loss, she turned me off with her sense of entitlement. She scoffed at the lawsuit for $2000 filed against their daughter Audrey by the trustee overseeing the case for the Madoff victims, saying that was less than the price to send a kid to private school for a year. WTF, Stephanie? Your father in law STOLE that money from someone. It didn't rightfully belong to your daughter. Bernard Madoff hadn't made an honest dollar in years. The money Mark and Andy generated in the legitimate market making business was siphoned to help keep the fraud afloat.
Stephanie dancing with Bernie is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. How inappropriate is it to do the "bend and blow" dance on your father-in-law?
You got that right. She tries to play the normal girl from a middle class family. A home in NYC a home in Nantucket and a home in St Barts is NOT lower middle class. She is so full of herself.
3:22 Mom is saying "Take any date you can get Stephanie". 🙄😑😒 I hate mothers like that. Acting as tho their daughters have no value outside of being a wife and mother smh

That's not true. I worked in the prison system. Don't talk about things you know nothing about. I'm pretty poor but I'm not bitter about it and I'm happy for People who make money(legitimately). Being bitter and envious of people will get you nowhere. Peace

After all they have bought and paid for it with the backhanders. People need to wake up before we all become slaves to the greed and deception, is it not obvious by now that there has been systematic breakup of the very fabric of society, look around, homelessness, poverty, hunger. its a wave of terror against the poor. Corporations refuse to pay their fair share to contribute to a decent society, a few at the top insulated against any upset, unions crushed, charities struggle under the weight of the needs. people were sold into the idea that a college education was protection against poverty, now the banks own them and guide their working life and the lives of their families, This is not freedom.

I've read 15 books or more on Madoff, including this one and the one done by Andrew Madoff, Truth and Consequences. I'm convinced that neither son knew about the old man's scheme. History is full of people who committed terrible crimes and family and friends had no idea what was going on, Ted Bundy/Green River Killer, etc. good book though!
jingle jazz I just feel bad for both son's children, Mark's wife and Andrew's fiancée, it's amazing that they are both gone now, they paid for their father's crimes while he is living it up in prison.
I did not know son wrote a book. I mean someone wrote it for him. More money for generations to come. maybe I need to write a book about my father. Wait a minute who would edit and publish it for me??????
hyroglyphx Severe depression, belief that his family (wife and kids would be better off without him), the constant stress of the suspicion and association of his father's crimes, irrational thinking when you become mentally ill sadly (depression and anxiety creates cognitive distortions that causes a spiraling effect). The saddest thing was that he thought his young kids and wife would be better off without him. When you have suicidal thought patterns you are not thinking rationally.
jingle jazz You know something at first I thought they knew, now I'm leaning towards they too didn't know. But, who knows. All I know is Madoff himself ruined a lot of lives, especially his sons.
let me ask you an honest question. Is it possible for a person to love another person that has money and have money not be the primary factor? For example, say you fall in love with someone and they hide the secret that they're rich for a while. You fall in love with them. Then they take it to the next level and the person who's well off shares the news. Does the person who's not rich have to back out of the relationship at that point? Are you saying that doesn't happen? In other words, your implication is that's it's not possible to see someone with someone else with money and have it not be a case of gold digging. Seriously man, just go work hard and do something with yourself and stop twisting the world to suit your convenient views that make it ok for you to stay a bum.
@@mattmarkus4868 Jesus was a " bum" as you put it. Do you know his net worth? Yeah, no one does. Because all the money in the world was worthless now wasn't it? I don't care about your spirituality or lack thereof. Were you to lay eyes on Jesus, you would see a "bum". Good luck with that.
Thoughts and feelings about this particular woman aside, it's sad to see an innocent party being so hurt by the actions of others and the pain and loss of losing her husband to suicide.
@@MsTinkerbelle87 Conspiracies and scams like these work the best when as few people as possible know about this, there is no sign to date that his sons knew about this
Gees people! Give the girl a break, she married a guy and wound up with a creep for an in-law. It happens every day to many women, only on a smaller scale. In any case, she is a young widow and single mother... Don't be so mean!
KeithofRoss they r not Creep. Be kind. Her in law used to b fabulously rich n respected. She is a woman that never lift up her finger. Graduated found her dreamy guy n got married. Now She completely turned against her in laws. Thats How I see her
Madoff just reconfirmed my skepticism for those who choose to handle others' finances. The unfortunate suicide of his son, Mark, in and of itself was tragic, much less on the second anniversary of his father's arrest. I do believe that Madoff's sons did *not* know about the fraud. Tragically, the younger son, Andrew, passed away from mantle cell lymphoma in 2014.
I should've added that if anyone is feeling suicidal, the American Foundation for Suicidal Prevention site has a toll-free 24/7 helpline and related resources.
superdoobo of course it would’ve made a difference and why not? Most people want to have a partner that can contribute enough to be comfortable and support a family. I’m so sick of men who make peanuts putting down men who make money and women too for that matter. Money matters.
@@EmpressLilith222 nothing wrong with wanting stability but at least be honest Edit: I quite like a quote I once heard... " The first time is love and the second is stability".
One satisfaction is that mama Ruth who reveled in humiliating her housekeeper now lives one scintilla of her former self and is the worlds biggest joke…karma at its finest
I'd bet my life she didn't. I don't think many have an understanding of how people like BM get away with things. Ruth is dumber than dirt, and went with the flow. I've seen it in MANY relationships.
What’s wrong with having your dreams come true and being wealthy? A lot of women and some men marry into old money families. It’s like no one on the internet thinks anyone should be happy.

I wish I could have talked to him.... I would have said: "If you are thinking about suicide, you are mad as hell at someone. You are obviously mad at your father and so ashamed that you've lost hope of ever being able to hold your head up again. There are many of your own faith who can teach you that you can overcome ANYTHING. If you are still breathing, there is hope. Even when stripped of everything- home, money, family, friends, freedom....you will see that you can go on. You can redefine yourself. You deserve to live. Life, even painful life, is precious. Just get thru one more day....
talitakoomi or her really knew what was going on and he felt too much guilt and that's why he killed himself...just felt too guilty. idk part of me thinks he knows and the other part of me doesn't think he knew. I just don't know. all I do know is that they fucked up a lot of people's lively hood and money.
Gregster82 ...glad you pointed that dude..🤔.. come to think of it..pretty much every1 out there in history had some kind of smoking gun tell tale about them..often only recognised beyond their infamy...😐
It's amazing to me, how Convenient it was that Bernie Madoff was Thrown under a Bus As the Financial Collapse started. Wallstreet Knew About him Long before he got Outed. He was a Side Show that Clouded The Crash.... Just a thought...
You are evil and a moron. Her husband killed himself due to the stress. If she did ban MIL then she was right. MIL was rejected by both of her son's after she refused to stop visiting her husband. If she had to have let MIL attend she would have been betraying her husband who cut off relations with his parents.
If I were Madoff's son I would have moved, changed my name and lived a good life. I refuse to take responsibility for someone else's choices. It would have blown over if he could have weathered the storm.
reading comments from the scum on youtube suggests that it would be a challenge. It seems to be a barometer for how society scapegoats the innocent and guilty alike. When they want blood nothing less will do.
Hahaha, she really thought she made itt. Well, honey now no more south of France and Montauk trips or anything she touches she gets hashahahahahshshshsgsgsgsgsgsgsgsgsahahahahahahahahahahshahahs
That is because you would do that. She had her own money. Mark was actually a good person. He was a rare kind. He was not pompous or arrogant and that is why he won her heart because she was the same way. They really loved each other.
She was never poor! She was rich, educated and had a great career before she ever met him. She was an acomplished woman. Don't put her down just because she married a guy who was richer than her. She really loved him. To unwealthy people this must seem bizarre, but rich people have their own social circles. So she would have never mingled with someone working at Walmart for instance. And it has nothing to do with being a snob. It would have been very unlikely to step out of the cirle, and there is nothing wrong with that.
@@stefanigreeneyes rich people never say I'm very rich" or my boyfriend is "very rich". Perhaps yor bofriend likes to hang out with the lower class because it feeds his ego. But "old money" does not. And I know this firsthand because I've been a maid for over 20 years.
First of all my boyfriend is not me and second lookon UA-cam how often people say that. Like james charles, kylie jenner, jeffree star all the time, so like yoir logic they are poor?
Chelsea Bella. Gallo ---You know what your father-in-law does/who he associates with/businesses he deals with? My FIL was a 747 mechanic with Delta, that’s it. All the rest was impressions within a FAMILY setting--loved flowers etc. Whose family members know business things? Your name is everything and theirs became synonymous with FRAUD, LIARS, CHEATS, when they were just family members but Madoff couldn’t be phoned, vandalized or spit at, but his family was reachable. It isn’t fair to paint them all with the same brush.
"See, now I'm gonna cry," she says (at 3:05), and there's not one tear in her eyes. Every fake weeper looks the same. Their faces crunch up, they fake a cracked voice, and no tears fall.
We are talking about a girl who wore a negligee as a wedding gown. She is (what) 10 or 11 years younger than her husband? She is hot and married for money. No other reason. And she was out of this family and this marriage the moment the money disappeared. And now her former husband is dead. And her husband was not the one scamming people.
If Ruth didn't know anything about Madoff's scam, why was Ruth in such a bad mood when Stephanie announced she was pregnant again? This happened before everyone supposedly first learned about the scam.
Personally.. i would of called the investors and told them that their money is gone.. it was 2008.. everything was falling.. It would of been the greatest heist.. but he had a conscious thought and decided in an act of clarity to try and be honest for once.
what a gold digging phony..... her husband recently killed himself...she can't stop smiling in this interview while promoting her narcissistic memoir... pathetic
My heart goes out to the children who lost their father from suicide and the innocent victims of this ugly evil scheme. The hard working people who lost everything they worked their whole life building.
Jessica Robinson I dont think im being rude. 😖 I’m sorry it I come across that way. Im not judging them by their grandfather sins. I said I pitty the children of some victims that lost everything. Ruth and the 2 sons’ widows, I believe receive 2.5 million settlement each (after deducting everything else that went to trustee) plus some jewelry here and there. So by that knowledge, and just my opinion that I did not elaborate earlier, I believe they are in better position than most people whose savings completely wiped off. And who knows their other savings that they have. Bernie and Ruth tried to send 1 million worth of jewelry to their relative during Bernie home arrest. Of course I pitty the children but I’m saying they are in a better position than most of the kids victims. Well having money does help.
Why would you say that? You obviously don't know anything about the case. He was not going to prison ever. He did not do anything wrong!!! He was actually a good person. In case you did not know, in many cases like these, the children don't have to necessarily be like their evil parents. And just because he was rich, didn't mean he didn't feel betrayed by his father. He turned in his own father, who up to this point, he considered to be his mentor. How do you think he felt? His family was receiving death threats, his mother sided with his father, and they lived in the middle of the scandal. It was too much for Mark. He was human too. He loved his family. I can't believe you have no compassion because all you are thinking about is the money.
Thank you young lady for doing a great job reporting what has gone down so far. Definitely praying the Farther will be done . And that the Holy Spirit be with Shaffer and his whole family are abiding in the anoiting of the Holy Spirit. And that all will be to Glorify and Highly Esstem the Most High🙏🙌☝In Jesus mighty name Amen!!!
It’s difficult to have any empathy for anyone in this family. That’s a lot going on without everyone knowing about it. Oh yeah, I read the news about Bernie wanting to get out early because he’s sick. Unbelievable!!
The sons reported on him and one of them killed himself. Bernie himself isn’t even sorry. Due to his high sense of compassion (😒), he could have implicated them. Their family is fractured. They deserve the empathy.
First red flag: "If you're rude to the help, you are not a nice person." So many people who have lots of cash are "nice" only to the people who can further their own agenda.
SIMPLE LIFE WE ALL CONTINUE TO SHARE NO MATTER WHERE WE ARE , THROUGH OUR CHILDREN OUR FRIEND, STRANGERS, NO MATTER WHOM, WE WILL TEACH YOU TO FIND TRUE LOVE AND BE VERY HUMBLE IN LIFE, THE MAIN KEY IS TO SHARE WITH ALL, NO MATTER WHO, NO MATTER WHAT
Those who invested with this man were just as guilty. Their greed blinded them from seeing the real truth; who receives 25 percent on an investment after 3 months?
Crazy dancing on your wedding day Stephanie , over exaggerated display of extreme happiness makes it so fake. Mark seems to be like a real person, genuine to say the least. RIP ....no more pain and sorrow dear Mark🌹💕🌹🌹🌹.
I really don't know that it would have mattered to her if he was at rich because she comes for a pretty well-off family. Her dad's a lawyer and she stated that her family's comfortable.
Chooses a career in fashion? What a misinformed and unrelated remark to make. Everyone who works in fashion isn't there just to score a wealthy person who wears clothing.
I have three suicides in my immediate family. There was a reason for each one of them though it took me a while to figure them out. Bernie Madoff held a long devastating secret but fooled a lot of people that everything was okay. Your late husband Mark also held a long and painful secret. It may take you an equally long time to understand it. I feel sorry for your loss and hope the knowledge of why will bring you some measure of comfort.
I’ve lost 500,000 but no one should die for this! It’s just greed that’s all it is just greed! I lost my house and my son has college just greed! I forgive you Bernie I don’t forgive Congress
I am so sorry to hear about the 3 suicides in your family. It really hurts the survivors for years. My friend lost money with Madoff and recommended others to invest with him. Now I have lost in Terra eco system and Celsius. Even I must fight off thoughts of suicide. I know it would affect my family in a bad way. I told them what happened, how I lost three generations of wealth and my own fifty-five years of hard work. So far, my family has not accused me of anything bad. I think they are in shock, as they have not criticized or commented on my financial demise. I had hoped to leave each family member with some inheritance when I die. Now it is gone. I am filled with negative thoughts everyday and feel worthless. I am a Christian, so I pray everyday to My Lord and ask Him for guidance.
@@suehaynie5054 Why should you forgive Madoff? It is good for your emotional well being to do so. But, did Madoff repent? Did he try to make restitution? Did Madoff ask you for forgiveness? No? Then you have no need to forgive Madoff. Did Our Lord and only Savior, Jesus Christ, forgive Satan? No! Because in the full sight and knowledge of God, Satan chose to try to unseat and be God. Satan has already been judged and condemned to eternal fire in Hell, though the sentence has not been carried out yet, for a very special reason. You do not have to forgive Bernie Madoff!
@@thomaspick4123 Christianity is the forgiveness of sins and nothing else. Jesus said that if you forgive others you will be forgiven but if you do not forgive others you will not be forgiven. Don’t expect the world to forgive. That is the truth the world cannot receive. It cannot understand that true and complete forgiveness is possible, but that was the message from the Saviour. Don’t let pagan beliefs in Karma ruin your faith in God. Resentment is the greatest of over-comings.
@@sharonmorine5407 That does make sense. There are certain indicators for suicide. One is unbearable pain without hope of relief, fear of an unbearable future, and a feeling that others would be better off without me.

You know something at first I thought they knew, now I'm leaning towards they too didn't know. But, who knows. All I know is Madoff himself ruined a lot of lives, especially his sons.
He was genuinely nice, sweet, sensitive , handsome man with MONEY
Bishwo's opinion always right - He’s the devil.
Bingo.... gold digger at her best.
let me ask you an honest question. Is it possible for a person to love another person that has money and have money not be the primary factor? For example, say you fall in love with someone and they hide the secret that they're rich for a while. You fall in love with them. Then they take it to the next level and the person who's well off shares the news. Does the person who's not rich have to back out of the relationship at that point? Are you saying that doesn't happen? In other words, your implication is that's it's not possible to see someone with someone else with money and have it not be a case of gold digging. Seriously man, just go work hard and do something with yourself and stop twisting the world to suit your convenient views that make it ok for you to stay a bum.
@@mattmarkus4868
Jesus was a " bum" as you put it. Do you know his net worth? Yeah, no one does. Because all the money in the world was worthless now wasn't it? I don't care about your spirituality or lack thereof. Were you to lay eyes on Jesus, you would see a "bum". Good luck with that.

Really she should sell everything her ring , car dresses on ebay and return it all. No exception.
Madoff just reconfirmed my skepticism for those who choose to handle others' finances. The unfortunate suicide of his son, Mark, in and of itself was tragic, much less on the second anniversary of his father's arrest. I do believe that Madoff's sons did *not* know about the fraud. Tragically, the younger son, Andrew, passed away from mantle cell lymphoma in 2014.
I should've added that if anyone is feeling suicidal, the American Foundation for Suicidal Prevention site has a toll-free 24/7 helpline and related resources.

No, he was a criminal. And Stephanie is a gold digger.
One satisfaction is that mama Ruth who reveled in humiliating her housekeeper now lives one scintilla of her former self and is the worlds biggest joke…karma at its finest
I really think that the wife knew -- hence her reaction about the grandson, which this widow cites as being so peculiar.
That's what I was thinking as well.
J Tube : well both.
Yes definitely, but the wife was angry about it, so that implies she had only recently found out, unless she was just angry it was failing.
I'd bet my life she didn't. I don't think many have an understanding of how people like BM get away with things. Ruth is dumber than dirt, and went with the flow. I've seen it in MANY relationships.
She looks so much like a younger version of her Mother-in-Law - how strange.
It’s strange a lot of rich men like that look but I see it a lot.
She was foolishly giddy at her wedding the way she acted just said I'm stinking rich now and loving it , well so she thought right .
cromerbeach it was embarrassing watching her over eagerness at the wedding. No class!
What’s wrong with having your dreams come true and being wealthy? A lot of women and some men marry into old money families. It’s like no one on the internet thinks anyone should be happy.

I wish I could have talked to him.... I would have said: "If you are thinking about suicide, you are mad as hell at someone. You are obviously mad at your father and so ashamed that you've lost hope of ever being able to hold your head up again. There are many of your own faith who can teach you that you can overcome ANYTHING. If you are still breathing, there is hope.

Gold digger stephanie...
You are evil and a moron. Her husband killed himself due to the stress. If she did ban MIL then she was right. MIL was rejected by both of her son's after she refused to stop visiting her husband. If she had to have let MIL attend she would have been betraying her husband who cut off relations with his parents.
If I were Madoff's son I would have moved, changed my name and lived a good life. I refuse to take responsibility for someone else's choices. It would have blown over if he could have weathered the storm.
reading comments from the scum on youtube suggests that it would be a challenge. It seems to be a barometer for how society scapegoats the innocent and guilty alike. When they want blood nothing less will do.
He was never going to be left alone after this scandal.
it was NOT sensitivity that attracted her.... it was the piles of money... so funny that every gold-digger likes to pretend they married for love.

She was never poor! She was rich, educated and had a great career before she ever met him. She was an acomplished woman. Don't put her down just because she married a guy who was richer than her. She really loved him. To unwealthy people this must seem bizarre, but rich people have their own social circles. So she would have never mingled with someone working at Walmart for instance. And it has nothing to do with being a snob. It would have been very unlikely to step out of the cirle, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Your name is everything and theirs became synonymous with FRAUD, LIARS, CHEATS, when they were just family members but Madoff couldn’t be phoned, vandalized or spit at, but his family was reachable.
It isn’t fair to paint them all with the same brush.
Easy to say from behind a screen.
"See, now I'm gonna cry," she says (at 3:05), and there's not one tear in her eyes. Every fake weeper looks the same. Their faces crunch up, they fake a cracked voice, and no tears fall.
We are talking about a girl who wore a negligee as a wedding gown. She is (what) 10 or 11 years younger than her husband? She is hot and married for money. No other reason. And she was out of this family and this marriage the moment the money disappeared. And now her former husband is dead. And her husband was not the one scamming people.
If Ruth didn't know anything about Madoff's scam, why was Ruth in such a bad mood when Stephanie announced she was pregnant again? This happened before everyone supposedly first learned about the scam.

Kaff231 i
Dont worry the children got trust money to take care of them. I pitty the children of those victims more
Jessica Robinson I dont think im being rude. 😖 I’m sorry it I come across that way. Im not judging them by their grandfather sins. I said I pitty the children of some victims that lost everything. Ruth and the 2 sons’ widows, I believe receive 2.5 million settlement each (after deducting everything else that went to trustee) plus some jewelry here and there. So by that knowledge, and just my opinion that I did not elaborate earlier, I believe they are in better position than most people whose savings completely wiped off. And who knows their other savings that they have. Bernie and Ruth tried to send 1 million worth of jewelry to their relative during Bernie home arrest. Of course I pitty the children but I’m saying they are in a better position than most of the kids victims. Well having money does help.
Kaff231 the father wasn't lost "from suicide", he's in jail.
they are reffering to mark madoff and his kids not bernie madoff
He's so amazing !he never showed off his pinto car,or his jc penny suits.
He didn't kill himself out of guilt. He killed himself out of fear of going to prison.
U got that right. Coward. If he only knew that they have buffets and work out rooms. Just cant leave
Why would you say that? You obviously don't know anything about the case. He was not going to prison ever. He did not do anything wrong!!! He was actually a good person. In case you did not know, in many cases like these, the children don't have to necessarily be like their evil parents. And just because he was rich, didn't mean he didn't feel betrayed by his father. He turned in his own father, who up to this point, he considered to be his mentor. How do you think he felt? His family was receiving death threats, his mother sided with his father, and they lived in the middle of the scandal. It was too much for Mark. He was human too. He loved his family. I can't believe you have no compassion because all you are thinking about is the money.
How do you know, asshole?

It’s difficult to have any empathy for anyone in this family. That’s a lot going on without everyone knowing about it. Oh yeah, I read the news about Bernie wanting to get out early because he’s sick. Unbelievable!!
The sons reported on him and one of them killed himself. Bernie himself isn’t even sorry. Due to his high sense of compassion (😒), he could have implicated them. Their family is fractured. They deserve the empathy.

It was obvious she loved her family and inlaws. I am more than sure he kept his secret very close. I pray for her children. They too are innocent.
First red flag: "If you're rude to the help, you are not a nice person." So many people who have lots of cash are "nice" only to the people who can further their own agenda.

Chooses a career in fashion? What a misinformed and unrelated remark to make. Everyone who works in fashion isn't there just to score a wealthy person who wears clothing.
I have three suicides in my immediate family. There was a reason for each one of them though it took me a while to figure them out. Bernie Madoff held a long devastating secret but fooled a lot of people that everything was okay. Your late husband Mark also held a long and painful secret. It may take you an equally long time to understand it. I feel sorry for your loss and hope the knowledge of why will bring you some measure of comfort.
I’ve lost 500,000 but no one should die for this! It’s just greed that’s all it is just greed! I lost my house and my son has college just greed! I forgive you Bernie I don’t forgive Congress
I am so sorry to hear about the 3 suicides in your family. It really hurts the survivors for years. My friend lost money with Madoff and recommended others to invest with him. Now I have lost in Terra eco system and Celsius. Even I must fight off thoughts of suicide. I know it would affect my family in a bad way. I told them what happened, how I lost three generations of wealth and my own fifty-five years of hard work. So far, my family has not accused me of anything bad. I think they are in shock, as they have not criticized or commented on my financial demise. I had hoped to leave each family member with some inheritance when I die. Now it is gone. I am filled with negative thoughts everyday and feel worthless. I am a Christian, so I pray everyday to My Lord and ask Him for guidance.
@@suehaynie5054 Why should you forgive Madoff? It is good for your emotional well being to do so. But, did Madoff repent? Did he try to make restitution? Did Madoff ask you for forgiveness? No? Then you have no need to forgive Madoff. Did Our Lord and only Savior, Jesus Christ, forgive Satan? No! Because in the full sight and knowledge of God, Satan chose to try to unseat and be God. Satan has already been judged and condemned to eternal fire in Hell, though the sentence has not been carried out yet, for a very special reason. You do not have to forgive Bernie Madoff!
@@thomaspick4123 Christianity is the forgiveness of sins and nothing else. Jesus said that if you forgive others you will be forgiven but if you do not forgive others you will not be forgiven. Don’t expect the world to forgive. That is the truth the world cannot receive. It cannot understand that true and complete forgiveness is possible, but that was the message from the Saviour. Don’t let pagan beliefs in Karma ruin your faith in God. Resentment is the greatest of over-comings.
@@sharonmorine5407 That does make sense. There are certain indicators for suicide. One is unbearable pain without hope of relief, fear of an unbearable future, and a feeling that others would be better off without me.
