Parables of Jesus
By L. XEITZEL
IX 'The Unmerciful Servant."
(Math. 18:21-30.)
This parable is the sequence of
Peter's interrogation, who thought
himself more than twice as liberal as
the Rabbis. Our Lord's reply teaches
that there must be no limit to human
pardon, as there is none to God's.
Christians pray. "Forgive our debts
as we also have forgiven our debt
ors." No one who has not forgiven
his enemies can pray the Lord's pray
er, which is another proof that it is
meant for Christians alone. This pe
tition occurring as it does in a pray
er intended for Christians only, is
conclusive proof that our Lord did
not expect His followers to attain
sinless perfection in this life. The
belief thai a Christian lives a per
fectly sinless life is contrary to the
New Testament. (John 1:8.)
Now follows the parable of the un
m rciful servant. This is peculiar to
Matthew. To show how God is so
me r fnl thai there is no limit to His
compassion and mercy, Jesus tells
this parable, in the first place to
show hf)w great man's debt is to
wards God. Ten thousand talents
(if of silver. $18,750,000: if of gold.
$500,006,60.) By this Jesus shows
the debt of man to God. This seems
to prove that God counts our sins
and transgressions, and keeps ac
count. We arp thinking about the many
idle words, the many times that Cod's
ho'y name is misuse, how many un
kind words arc sooken. how many
offenses man commits against his fel-
low man. how many false rumors are
spread, the dishonesty of mankind,
the many sins of omission as well as
of commission. Then visualize. If
y.u can. a man's life who has attain
ed seventy or eighty years of age his
sins and debts will be innumerable.
But God, in His great mercy and
with a compassionate understanding!
Of the frailties of human nature is
Willing and does forgive mankind for
all the things he has done. Pleading
from a penitent heart is the one thing
necessary to wipe the slate clean so
tht nothing appears that can ever
brought up again against man.
Then, you ask. how can a beirgar
like yen and me in the sight of God.
pay such a debt? Jesus paid it all:
He died on Calvary's cross to atone
for the sins of the world your sins
and my sins.
And then, perhaps, this man whos
canceled debt has been so enormous
finds a fellow servant who owes him
a trifling sum. He foreets how he
has groveled in the dust before his
Lord and begged for mercy: the brute
in him gets the upper hand: and he
grabs the unfortunate fellowman by
the throat chockes him. and demands
immediate restitution. Not being
able to pay, he has him put in pris
on. Such things are happening in
this modern age and could we but
see, our own debts are no more for
aiven thai: we are willing to forgive
the debts of those who owe us.
They but show the low character
Of mankind in general. What a good
memory some men have for the faults
of others, never forgetting if their
neighbor has stepped on their toes,
and at every opportunity reminding
others of how much they have done
for them and how little their good
ness is appreciated and that they will
fret e ven with them sometime. "For
give us our debts, as we forgive those
who are Indebted to us." Hollow
mockery, this sort of praying from the
lips of those to whom the command
of God means so little.
Here is a little story that illus
trates the opposite of this unmerciful
servant: A manufacturer had fur
nished a mechanic goods for a long
time and did not receive any pay:
the debt grew so large that the man
ufacturer became alarmed: finally
went to collect his bill. When he
came he saw the extreme poverty
and besides a demented bey on the
floor. The manufacturer said: "T
see that you cannot pay the debt.
btit I will take this boy with me for
the whole bill."
