•' Jesui Teaches Forgiveness.
Lesson for March 4: Matthew 18:21-
35.
Memory Verse: Matthew 6:14-15.
The answer of Jesus to Peter is
not the mere arithmetic of fdrgive-
ness. It does not mean that one
should forgive 490 times, and be
yond that refuse. But the answer
really means that forgiveness
should have no limit.
The contrast between the first
impulse of the king and his actual
dealing with the debtor ii marked—
to sell the man’s wife and children
into slavery and to cast the man
into prison would have been the
course of unforgiving men, the
king’s merciful dealing with the
poor fellow illustrates the spirit
of forgiveness which Jesus teaches.
But the forgiven man is not an
example of penitence. Pleading
for mercy, he was hard and merci
less toward others. He went out
from the nresence of his forgivin ;
master, throttled a fellow servant,
demanded a lew shillings, and then
cast the man into prison.
“Give a man enough rope and he
will hang himself.” Bad men cart
go too far in their wickedness
toward others. The indignation of
the other servants led them tn
make common cause against the
wicked debtor. Even now public
opinion should be aroused and di
rected toward the exposure of men
who are growing rich at the ex
pense of others.
But let not any forget their need
to forgive the personal wrong.
Consider how an absolute deadline
is drawn between the unforgiving
man and God (Lord’s Prayer) ano
beware of harboring resentment ot
real or fancied wrong. Peace of
soul and heaven at last are wortfc
infinitely more than the satisfac
tion of cherishing a grudge.
