Forgiveness: 1 he fourth criteria i By MILDRED PEPPERS j Sunday School Lesson ! Lesson Scripture: Matthew | 18:21-35 Lesson Aims: to understand Jesus' teachings on forgiveness, and i to cultivate a forgiving attitude. Background: Love, humility | and a sharing spirit are characteris tics of a Christian. Today's lesson adds one more criterion ? an atti tude of forgiveness. Very easily does this single word roll off lips yet at times, it is difficult to prac tice. The first four lessons of this year center on the daily life of the believer. These standards set them apart from the World. They serve us because for if implemented, you definitely standout. Forgiveness in \ the Old Testament is somewhat dif ferent than in the New Testament. In the Old Testament, there were sin offerings. The blood sacrifice "covered" the sin. This ritual had to be repeated over and over again individually as well as collectively. Jesus' teaching continued from ?a Chapter 18. The first four verses ? were a part of last week's lesson. He alsQ taught the parable of the lost sheep. His focus turns to fbrr' giveness (w. 15-17) and agreement in prayer (w. 18-20). Lesson: Beter then asks the question; how many times do we forgive, seven times? Jewish tradi tion teaches forgiveness three times but not a fourth. It appears that Peter desired more instruction on the matter and he felt comfortable extending the number to seven. Jesus' response probably made their mouths drop open. How can you make up with a person .490 times! The point here isn't to keep count, the believers art to forgive as often as necessary. The parable begips to highlight the meaning. A king summons for the outstanding accounts to be paid in full. One of the servants owed a large sum to him and couldn't repay it. The pun? ishment was the servant's entire family was to be sold into slavery and all possessions turned over to the king for payment. The servant dramatically falls on his knees and' asks for more time. The lord's conv passion moved him to forgive the servant's debts completely. That! same servant went out . and-found someone that owed him. Instead of. being forgiving, he physically attacked the person for his money. This man also fell down and asked for patience. He'was thrown into prison. "When others saw this ser-' vant's (me first) behavioT, they . reported it to the lord. The servant was summoned, chastised and thrown into prison) Jesus, ends the.... lessoft by saying God will {Lo this to you if'you'don't forgive others. , . Application: According to P. Douglas Mcintosh in the "Bible ' Expositor' and Illuminator" for giveness makes three promises. First, the matter is never men tioned to the person again. Second, neither is it mentioned to others.' Third, the, matter isn't tolled over and Over in'our minds. The New Testament alters the. meaning of forgiveness. Instead of being ?ov ered by. the blood Of -a sacrificed' animal. Jesuj' blood completely, erases the sih. In lay terms, this means the sin is wiped out never to , epnvict us again. (W salvation is in,' Hirfi, the ultimate sacrifice! There- ' fore, whenever sin separates, us from God and others, we need to seek' forgiveness God is.so merciful ?,,. that pur petitioh (in 'sincerity), is granted. How'then can We be so unforgiving? "All have sinned and *' come short 'of the glory of God.'' (Romans.3:23) says the Word. God' forgives ? can we as believers do. no'less .with each other. A Ibt of^ times, we adjust like the pardoned A servant; we get ours and'are cruel to bthersftbat also need forgiveness. , , If it is good en'ohgh for us, is it not . good for others? Our lesson this far in 1999 has4been the practical, day to-day criteria for being a' Christ ian. A" four have to" be accom plished by the Holy Spirit. We cart't. do if alonel Dbedience is-"better than sacrifice! Be loving, humble, generous and forgiving to all Of creation! We can-change the world for Che-21st century. , ? ? 1 \ Grantheum johnson Director and Manager 1415 East 14th St. ?? Winston-Salem,. NC ' ? . ? (336)724-1561 ? Macedonia Holiness Church Of God .
