Did Jesus say that?—by Tsepo May

April 9, 2023

Sermon summary:

Did Jesus say, "You don't need to forgive them?" And, "You won't have bad days?"

  1. You don't need to forgive them. Matthew 6:9-15 The Bible doesn't say, "forgive us our debt: while we hold on to our own grudges.

Matthew 18: 21-25 We need to forgive others from the heart, otherwise God won't forgive us. We need to forgive as the Lord forgave us (Colossians 3:13).


2. You won't have bad days. John 16:20a-22 Jesus says you will weep and mourn while the world rejoices.

In John 16:33, Jesus says in this world you will have many troubles, but that he's overcome the world. Ease and comfort never make you stronger. Jesus set the example of having a bad day—his crucifixion and death, and coming out victorious on the other side.

Yada is a Hebrew word that means "to know". God reveals himself to us through his power, his loving kindness, his word, Holy Spirit and forgiveness. The cross is the ultimate expression of God's love for us.
