The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant

This message talks about the parable of the unmerciful servant.

I need to forgive . . .

1) . . . because God has forgiven me

Why we don’t forgive:

We forget how much we have been forgiven

We minimize our sins

We don’t believe we are forgiven

2) . . . because resentment makes me miserable

3) . . . because I will need forgiveness in the future

You will rehearse it or release it

The blame test

The bitterness test

The behavior test
