"Forgiven! Pay It Forward" (Romans 14:1-12, Matthew 18:21-35)

Part of the Sunday series, preached at a Sunday service

“Pay It Forward” is to respond to a person's kindness to oneself by being kind to someone else.” “Forgiveness is something that everyone needs…eager to receive…but very hard to give.”
“Forgiveness is not always easy. At times, it feels more painful than the wound we suffered, to forgive the one that inflicted it. And yet, there is no peace without forgiveness” (Marianne Williamson). Real forgiveness keeps on leaving the sins of others and our hurts in the past. Yet Jesus understands the difficulty of such forgiveness. To keep on forgiving is a God-like characteristic. It is contrary to human nature.
