Eighteenth Sunday after Pentecost cycle a
___________________________________________________________
"Then Peter came and said to
him, "Lord, if another member of the church sins against me, how often
should I forgive? As many as seven times?" Jesus said to him, "Not seven
times, but, I tell you, seventy-seven times. "For this reason the
kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who wished to settle
accounts with his slaves. When he began the reckoning, one who owed him
ten thousand talents was brought to him; and, as he could not pay, his
lord ordered him to be sold, together with his wife and children and all
his possessions, and payment to be made. So the slave fell on his knees
before him, saying, 'Have patience with me, and I will pay you
everything.' And out of pity for him, the lord of that slave released
him and forgave him the debt. But that same slave, as he went out, came
upon one of his fellow slaves who owed him a hundred denarii; and
seizing him by the throat, he said, 'Pay what you owe.' Then his fellow
slave fell down and pleaded with him, 'Have patience with me, and I will
pay you.' But he refused; then he went and threw him into prison until
he would pay the debt. When his fellow slaves saw what had happened,
they were greatly distressed, and they went and reported to their lord
all that had taken place. When his fellow slaves saw what had happened,
they were greatly distressed, and they went and reported to their lord
all that had taken place. Then his lord summoned him and said to him,
'You wicked slave! I forgave you all that debt because you pleaded with
me. Should you not have had mercy on your fellow slave, as I had mercy
on you?..." Matthew 18:21-35

Where Does God Live?
A minister was asking a group of children, "Do you know where God lives?" One
excited little boy raised his hand and replied, "In the bathroom!!!" "In the
bathroom?" questioned the minister. "Yes" said the boy adamantly. "What makes
you think he lives there?" asked the minister. "Well, just this morning, my dad
went to the bathroom door, knocked and said 'Good Lord are you still in
there?'"
