[Mat 18:21-35 NASB20] 21 Then Peter came up and said to Him, "Lord, how many times shall my brother sin against me and I [still] forgive him? Up to seven times?" 22 Jesus said to him, "I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy-seven times. 23 "For this reason the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his slaves. 24 "And when he had begun to settle [them,] one who owed him ten thousand talents was brought to him. 25 "But since he did not have [the means] to repay, his master commanded that he be sold, along with his wife and children and all that he had, and repayment be made. 26 "So the slave fell [to the ground] and prostrated himself before him, saying, 'Have patience with me and I will repay you everything.' 27 "And the master of that slave felt compassion, and he released him and forgave him the debt. 28 "But that slave went out and found one of his fellow slaves who owed him a hundred denarii; and he seized him and [began] to choke [him,] saying, 'Pay back what you owe!' 29 "So his fellow slave fell [to the ground] and [began] to plead with him, saying, 'Have patience with me and I will repay you.' 30 "But he was unwilling, and went and threw him in prison until he would pay back what was owed. 31 "So when his fellow slaves saw what had happened, they were deeply grieved and came and reported to their master all that had happened. 32 "Then summoning him, his master said to him, 'You wicked slave, I forgave you all that debt because you pleaded with me. 33 'Should you not also have had mercy on your fellow slave, in the same way that I had mercy on you?' 34 "And his master, moved with anger, handed him over to the torturers until he would repay all that was owed him. 35 "My heavenly Father will also do the same to you, if each of you does not forgive his brother from your heart."
Recognizing the value of consistent reflection upon the Word of God in order to refocus one's mind and heart upon Christ and His Gospel of peace, we provide several reading plans designed to cover the entire Bible in a year.
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical,
conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy
of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a
range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed
