Matthew 18:21-35
Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?” Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.
“Then the master called the servant in. ‘You wicked servant,’ he said, ‘I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?’ In anger his master handed him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed.
This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother or sister from your heart.
Unlimited forgiveness is expected of those who enjoy the limitless forgiveness of God.
Why?
seventy-seven times is forever.
We have to forgive our brothers and sisters when they sin against us or the church, if they regrate and confess their sin, we should forgive them all. Because we are the sinner either, compare our sins God has forgiven us is higher and more expensive than we forgive our brothers and sisters.
This is the model of Jesus did for us to follow him.

天國誰是最大的議題持續,包括要善待最小的小子,要挽回得罪我的人幾次呢?無限多次。最不容易是挽回那得罪我的人。為什麼我不能饒恕呢?因為我失去太多了,受傷太多了,太冤枉了。耶穌以債主的故事來比例來比喻。誰虧欠比較多,無論如何人虧欠我的和我虧欠神的無法相比。我們已經先被饒恕了,為什麼我還要去和人計較呢?若是如此,我們的一千萬也會沒有了。
該隱的後代拉麥,追討別人,殺人多倍,完全是驕傲造成的。不饒恕人也是驕傲的緣故。要保有一千萬,向人付出是保有恩典的方法。

How?
Have mercy to all of the needy people for God is love, Jesus has shed his blood for us.
