Forgive Us Our Debts

Jun 1, 2025    Wilson Parrish

In this powerful exploration of forgiveness, we're challenged to confront one of the most difficult aspects of our faith journey. The teaching centers on Matthew 6:9-15, with a particular emphasis on Jesus' words about forgiving others. We're reminded that forgiveness isn't just a suggestion - it's a crucial component of our relationship with God. The message draws striking parallels between how we want God to forgive us and how we're called to forgive others. This teaching pushes us to consider: are we truly forgiving as Christ forgives us? It's a sobering reminder that our own forgiveness is deeply intertwined with our willingness to forgive others. As we reflect on this, we're encouraged to examine our hearts, identify those we need to forgive, and take steps towards total forgiveness - not for their sake, but for our own spiritual freedom and growth.
