So he finally found Nicole's killer?I'm sure he's looking up at all of us now
Pray for me as well Brother. I ask God to touch my heart each time this pops up on my TV.I so loved OJ Simpson.
I was first a USC fan and secondly an OJ fan. My earliest memories of football were of OJ slicing and dicing UCLA and Notre Dame's defenses and not of the Rams. My Dad was also a Rams fan and so I became one and I wanted the Rams to draft him so badly, it hurt me for years afterwards watching his success in Buffalo. He retired and went into the broadcasting booth and did movies on the side. And then the slow motion Bronco chase...
After briefly defending him until I knew more facts, my love morphed into hate so fast that it shocked me. The verdict was unjust and most of the World knew it then as it does now. Between then and now, I became a Christian. I believe that even murderers can be forgiven if there is true repentance (which only God knows). Aside from the whale swallowing Jonah account, the lost message about the prophet Jonah is that he knew God would forgive the Ninevites after hearing his preaching/prophesizing and he hated them and so ran the other way. I have to say that I feel a bit like Jonah today, lol. Pray for me.

We are all guilty of transgressions.Pray for me as well Brother. I ask God to touch my heart each time this pops up on my TV.
I ask each time to lift the hate from my heart and to help me pray for the sinner.
I believe I am loved by my maker and have plenty to be sorry for, He works in miraculous ways……not my task to judge OJ’s salvation.
Thankfully
