Message: The gospel according to Luke
Text: Luke 5:17-26
1 Timothy 1:15
Who is the worst person in this room?
Forgiveness should not create in us a self righteous attitude, but rather gratitude, for what Jesus has done for us. To be self righteous means you have forgotten what Jesus has done for you.
Oswald Chambers, "When once you realize all that it cost God to forgive you, you will be held as in a vice, constrained by the love of God."
C.S. Lewis, "To be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable, because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you."
