Title: Generosity in forgiveness
Text verse: Matthew 18: 21–22
Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?” Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven.”
Message:
Let us be willing to reconcile.
Summary:
- In the parable of the unforgiving servant, Jesus illustrates that the grace received by the sinner also serves as a mandate for him to exercise grace in his own right.
- The full scope of God’s forgiving grace is shown in His love.
- We endeavour to follow the example of Jesus in our willingness to forgive.
