I agree that he wanted the debt paid, but he did retract the part about the man having to sell his kids and so forth to give him time to pay back
the debt did he not?
as i said i agree that he wanted the debt repaid and ofcorse, debt should always be repaid, but when he gives him time to pay it back instead of
having to sell his kids to get the debt at once is that not being tolerant?
and when jesus talks about rejoicing about they stray sheep he got back to the flock more than he would do over the ninety and nine that stayed,
is that not about tolerance for the stray sheep and forgiving it for going astray or am i completely wrong on this one aswell and if so what does he speak about here?
and this is just for you because i apparently have disrespected you a great deal according to some of the other true christians in here
and if you see it in the same way i am truly sorry about that, but i will ask you this personally since the only response i got when asking it in my last post was to go jump in a volcano, but how can a post talking about respect for you and wisdom on your part as a holy man be considered unholy and blasphemous, even though it apparently had been written in verses? (without it being intended)
18:12 How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray?
18:13 And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that [sheep], than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.
