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?

Forgiveness in the local churches is like a minefield. Forgiveness is an individual matter and not a corporate matter. From brother to brother and from sister to sister there may be forgiveness to ones who left and there may not be. For some forgiveness may be a matter of what the leading brothers say.
Conversely, same applies to ones who left the local churches. Forgiveness might require months for some and for others it may take years. Depending how long it takes to heal the hurt.
