Forgiveness goes both ways!
In the "Parable of the Unmerciful Servant," Jesus tells the story of a righteous King, who forgives a slave who owes him a great deal of money. The forgiven servant, however, does not forgive his fellow-slave, who owes him only a small amount of money. When the King hears that the forgiven servant was unmerciful and did not forgive, as he was forgiven, the King has the unmerciful servant thrown into prison until he repays his entire debt.
The comparison is obvious and convicting between God, as the "King," who forgives us, His "servants," but who expects us to forgive each other, just as we have been forgiven. This script is an electronic script!
