Description
In this episode we talk about the vital importance of forgiving others.I referenced an episode that I uploaded about the Gospel. That was episode number 24 (entitled "The Gospel").Here is the quote from Lewis B. Smedes that I read: "To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you."Scriptures used:Matthew 18:15-352 Kings 4:1-7Romans 3:23Romans 6:23Ephesians 2:8-92 Corinthians 5:21Ephesians 4:30-32Luke 7:36-501 John 4:7-20Matthew 22:34-40Romans 8:1Hebrews 12:5-13John 3:16Luke 23:34Romans 12:19Matthew 6:14-15Psalm 66:18Mark 11:20-25John 14:131 John 5:14-15James 4:3**CORRECTIONS/CLARIFICATIONS**I said that a talent was a unit of measurement. It would've probably been more helpful and accurate to refer to it as a monetary unit instead of a unit of measurement (although I suppose it does "measure" an amount of money so to speak).I used the word "exorbitant" to describe the king's generosity and compassion. Perhaps "extreme" would have been a better word. Sometimes exorbitant can have a negative connotation about it, which is most certainly not what I was implying. I was only referring to the king's mercy in positive terms.When reading Matthew 18:34, I said, "...until he should pay off all his debt." I accidentally added the word "off". The verse actually says, "...until he should pay all his debt."I read Matthew 18:33 as, "And should you not have had mercy...". It's actually "And should not you have had mercy..." It was just a slight word order change that didn't affect the meaning in any way.Feel free to email any questions or comments you have to ijustwanttotalkabout@gmail.com.
