Compassion and Judgement: Forgiveness as a Signpost of Transformation
from Manna and Coffee · host Henry Holub
For some reason, many of us find judgement to be a more natural reaction than compassion. The problem is that, to be a Christian is to pass on the compassion we have received, and though we no doubt want to do so, it can be difficult. Sometimes we, like Peter, look for guidelines so that we can know where we stand. Jesus responds to Peter’s question about a limit to forgiveness with a parable that emphasizes compassion as something worth passing on.
