Matthew 18:21-35: Then Peter came up and said to him, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?” (Verse 21)

Just like many of us, Peter had followed the Lord for some time. And he may have thought he had grown in goodness. So, he even extended the rabbis’ standard of forgiveness from three to seven times, and probably expected to be complimented by Jesus. We too may feel we are going beyond the norm in what we give and forgive. Note that Peter doesn’t imagine he could be the sinner; it’s his brother he has to watch! And aren’t we guilty of that too?

In any case, Jesus challenges him. He enlarges the forgiving to 490 times — that is, beyond counting. And why? The story that follows tells of a man who had been forgiven a huge sum of money and then went out and hammered someone who owed him a pittance. God has forgiven us thousands of times — removing our mountain of sins by his death on Calvary.

Should we then turn around and slam someone for raising a molehill against us?

Matthew 18:10-20: “If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone.” (Verse 15a)

When someone hurts us, our common reaction is to tell other people. By doing that we get their sympathy and support. But we also spread the poison.

Jesus tells us to confront the offending person directly and privately. That’s called walking in the light (1 John 1:7). By doing so, we show trust in each other, we share our temptations and trials, we get a clearer insight into one another’s nature, and we clear up misconceptions about motives and methods. And we don’t let the poison spread.

Of course it’s difficult. It takes courage to confront him or her and tell them we have been hurt. But besides keeping the problem confined to a small circle, it enables quicker healing. And it’s what Jesus commands.

Who has sinned against you whom you need to confront, humbly and prayerfully, today?

Matthew 18:1-9: “Whoever humbles himself like this child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.” (Verse 4)

The disciples had a commendable question. They wanted to know who would be the greatest in heaven. But Jesus had a surprising answer. He took a child and, setting him in their midst, used him as an object lesson.

Every day Jesus puts children into homes. We notice their love and trust and obedience, their cheerfulness and innocence. But Jesus points out their humility. He says that makes them great. And he asks us to copy them.

Is it easy? I think it’s about the hardest task in the world. For pride is subtle. It creeps into our worship and hardens it. It seeps into our virtues and sours them. We can even have pride in our humility! Did you hear about the man who was given a medal because of his humility? The donors took it away when he started to wear it! Sometimes we have to be humbled by being humiliated. How much easier it would be if we just admitted that Jesus is Lord of all and knelt before him!
