“WHAT FIRES JESUS UP?” SERIES
JESUS IS FIRED UP ABOUT FORGIVENESS
Matthew 18:21-35
 
Introduction –
 
            Let’s look at the passage.
Let’s make the application.
 
 
JESUS IS FIRED UP ABOUT FORGIVENESS!
 
THE TIME TO FORGIVE IS NOW!
 
Let’s look at four reasons why this is true:
 
1.                  Rationalizations are FOOLISH.
 
 
2.                  Unforgiveness is so DESTRUCTIVE.
 
 
3.                  God’s forgiveness DEMANDS it.
 
 
4.                  Unforgiveness will HURT.
 
 
How will I know if I have forgiven?
 
1.                  Negative feelings will begin to DISAPPEAR.
 
2.                  You gain the ABILITY accept the person.
 
3.                  It becomes easier to bear the shortcomings and
 FAILURES of others.
