Matthew 18:21-35 - Forgiveness Comes From the Heart

This week, our Pastoral Resident, Mykel Pollock taught on the parable of the unmerciful servant and how God expects us to treat people in light of how He has treated us. Much like the king’s servant, we are forgiven when we are repentant and are expected to extend forgiveness when our debtors ask us for the same. As Pastor Joseph Rowell writes, “We are never more like Satan than when we gossip and slander, and we are never more like Jesus than when we forgive and let it go.“ In light of this, we must ask ourselves, “Who is the Spirit of God calling us to forgive?” and “Who am I more like in my unforgiveness?”
