"AS"

 My sermon tomorrow is about 'forgiveness', which Jesus tell Peter to do 'seventy times seven times' when a member of the church sins against him.

The title of the sermon is "Don't Forget to Forgive".

I named it that because of the Lord's Prayer.

Jesus tells us to pray, "forgive us out trespasses ('sins') as we forgive those who trespass ('sin') against us."

AS is the big word there.

In the prayer it means "in the same way that".

So, if we don't forgive, God will not forgive us.

Check out Matthew 18.21-25 to read all about it....

And don't forget to forgive....
