Sermon
The Unmerciful Servant

Summary
Jesus uses the parable of an unforgiving servant to teach that forgiven people must forgive others. A servant forgiven of an enormous debt refuses to forgive a fellow servant's small debt, revealing that unforgiveness disqualifies one from God's kingdom and that genuine faith is marked by extending grace as Christ extended it to us.
Highlights
There is perhaps nothing more destructive to the human heart than deep seated unforgiveness and bitterness in your life.
Your forgiveness of other people is either proof that you were saved or evidence that you are not saved.
I've been forgiven so, so, so much, but how in the world can I not forgive this person who's just maybe messed with me just a little bit?
