Episode Details

Today, Jesus encourages us to learn to face the music. If we do something deserving a penalty, then we need to expect that penalty to come upon us. Some escape with impunity in this world. But we will never be able to escape the divine judgment. We hear Jesus telling us today that we need to love our enemies. We need to be merciful so that God show us mercy as well. We pray in the Lord's Prayer that God forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. This might make us look weak since we do not go by the way of revenge. It is most difficult to forgive instead. To forgive makes us most Godlike, since it is proper of God to be forgiving of our offenses, as long as we ask for forgivenes.
