It's Lee himself that added extra conditions i.e. "forgive and forget." That was sorely needed in the LCM to protect him and his sons from any responsibility for their actions.
But then again doesn't God Himself require some repentance before He will forgive?

Nope! When we were yet dead (zero response) in trespasses and sin . . . He already forgave us in Christ and initiated it all. He also puts the believing faith seed in us. We accept His free gift and come alive and find that forgiveness is already there, waiting for us.
And, I think, the forgetting is another thing that's only possible with Him. A brother expressed doubt to me that God can forget. But can God lie? No, and He says He will forget. He says it. He wouldn't say it unless it's true. Forgetting is Wonderful!
