If I use my credit card to make a purchase for a family member, I am expecting them to pay me back as soon as possible. I will be irked if their payment doesn’t arrive before my bill is due. But if someone else paid my entire balance, I don’t need to worry about whether the first person pays me or not.
Matthew 18:21-35 NASB1995
I. Jesus’ story
II. Jesus’ message
• Those who have experienced forgiveness from God must forgive others
III. Our objections
• Justice and forgiveness are partners, not foes
• We don’t deserve it either
• We are not trapped by their neglect
IV. How we put the message into practice
• Trust Jesus for the forgiveness of your sins
• Choose to forgive
• Refuse to charge
• Ask God for help
• Speak and act with love
