For Jesus’ Sake
FORGIVEAnd You Will Be FORGIVEN
Luke 6:37
![Page 12: A segment on scars](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062503/58f164971a28abd4618b456d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain King who wanted to settle
accounts with His Servants.
And when he had begun to settle accounts, one was brought to Him who Owed Him 10,000 Talents.
(With Gold @ $900 per Ounce 1 Talent = $1,080,000 10,000,000 Talents =
Estimated $10 Billion +) Matthew 18:23-
![Page 13: A segment on scars](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062503/58f164971a28abd4618b456d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
(10,000,000 Talents = Est. $10 Billion +)
But as he was NOT ABLE to PAY,
His Master Commanded that he be Sold, with his Wife & Children & All that he had, and That Payment Be
Made…
![Page 14: A segment on scars](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062503/58f164971a28abd4618b456d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
God Forgives Us a Far Greater Debt …The servant therefore fell downbefore him, saying, “Master, have
patience with me, & I will pay you all.”
Then the Master of that Servant was Moved with
Compassion, Released Him, and Forgave Him the Debt.
![Page 15: A segment on scars](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062503/58f164971a28abd4618b456d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Being Forgiven Holds Us Accountable
“But That Servant Went Out & Found One of His Fellow
Servants Who Owed him 100 Denarii;
(About 3 Months Pay) And he Laid Hands on Him and Took him by the Throat, Saying,
'Pay Me What You Owe!’
![Page 16: A segment on scars](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062503/58f164971a28abd4618b456d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Observe This Man who WAS Forgiven • So his fellow servant fell down at his
feet and begged him, saying, “Have patience with me, and I will pay you all.” And he would not, but went and threw him into prison till he should pay the debt. • So when his fellow servants saw
what had been done, they were very grieved, and came and told their master all that had been done.
![Page 17: A segment on scars](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062503/58f164971a28abd4618b456d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Then his master, After he had called him, Said To
Him, “You Wicked Servant! I Forgave You All That Debt
Because You Begged Me. Should You Not ALSO have had Compassion on your Fellow Servant,
Just as I had Pity on You?”
![Page 18: A segment on scars](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062503/58f164971a28abd4618b456d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
And his master was Angry, & Delivered him to the
TORTURERS Until he should Pay
ALL That was DUE to him.

•Expect Mercy If You will Not Give Mercy?•Expect Forgiveness If You Will Not Freely Forgive?

He was wounded for our
transgressions, He was Bruised for our Iniquities; the Chastisement of Our Peace was upon Him, and by His Stripes we are
Healed. Isaiah 53:5

When you Fail to React To Those who Hurt You
With Love & Forgiveness, You Retain in Your Heart the Debt the Offender Owes You.
That Offense Will Rob Your Heart
Of Its Capacity to Love.

Beyond How we May Feel
We Must Choose to Hear, Speak and See Forgiveness

Out?(He Absolutely Will)
