But as he was not able to pay, his master commanded that he be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and that payment be made. Matthew 18: 25 -27 The servant therefore fell down before him, saying, ‘Master, have patience with me, and I will pay you all.

Matthew 18: 31 -33 So when his fellow servants saw what had been done, they were very grieved, and came and told their master all that had been done. Then his master, after he had called him, said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me. Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you? ’ This file belongs to Getting Back to YHWH www. gettingbacktoyhwh. org.

Let’s Watch and Learn

Let’s Discuss • What does the Our Father’s Prayer say about forgiveness in Matthew 6: 12 and Matthew 6: 14? Open your bibles and see! • If someone offends us and does not say sorry, should we still forgive them? • How many times does Yahshua say we should forgive someone if they upset us? • Why did Yahshua say we must forgive people? • What happens to us when we don’t forgive people? • Who can help us to love and forgive even people that we do not think deserve it?

Let's Remind Ourselves of the Fruits of the Ruach Haqodesh LOVE JOY PEACE PATIENCE KINDNESS GOODNESS FAITHFULNESS GENTLENESS SELF-CONTROL This file belongs to Getting Back to YHWH www. gettingbacktoyhwh. org.

Let’s Recap What We’ve Learnt • When we pray the Prayer to Our Father, we ask our Father to forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. We must not just say the words but also do what we have promised also. • If we do not forgive people who upset us, then we will not be forgiven also by our Father Yahuah and if we are not forgiven of our sins, then we cannot see the kingdom of Yahuah. • We must be prepared to forgive everyone that offends us even those who do not deserve it and even those who do not say sorry. Yahshua says we must forgive seventy times seven times. That means someone has to upset us four hundred and ninety times before we have a right not to forgive them. • It is the Ruach Haqodesh who can help us to forgive even when we don’t feel like it. We should pray and ask for His help to forgive. This file belongs to Getting Back to YHWH www. gettingbacktoyhwh. org
