What do you think?

What do you think about a Christian (says they are) that always seems to take offense, seems unforgiving?

Doesn't 1 Corinthians 13 say love takes no offense?

I think it means the person needs to grow spiritually....be willing to yield to the Holy Spirit in forgiving others.

Thank you for the question.

In Matthew 18: 15-17—Jesus says that if someone in a (Christian) community is causing harm, we have a responsibility to draw it to his/her attention and persuade the person to change.

Do you see this happening? If so, remember to engage with love!

Blessings.

The person rejects godly counsel and takes offense.

seems unforgiving?

They would be in very BIG trouble and someone should try to help them.

Matthew 6:15
If ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Luke 6:37
Forgive, and you will be forgiven.

Their salvation is in jeopardy if they refuse to forgive others.

The person gets offended easily when people try to give some counsel.
