Matthew 18:1-14
How can we have the Christian identity? There is the only way which is to hold the cross. Like a child, it is to carry what God burdened on us. Those who depend on the Father God will be invited to his kingdom.
What, then shall we do with Christian identity? It is God's will that any little one should not be lost. Values in thus world are all about myself. But the life holding the cross is all about love and sacrifice. There is nothing to boast except for the yoke that Jesus is carrying. Let's practice love and sacrifice for others, not cause people shameful to what God gave them.
Matthew 18:15-35
It is all about Christian life. Jesus saved us like a lost sheep and a guilty brother. Now he asked us to go to the same people who need the salvation. In order to win and establish them, we need endurance. There is no pride but true love with the cross.
Without cross, we cannot be united into one. Only through Jesus, under his cross, we can make an agreement so that God will answer for us. We can't please God alone but together.
We have to forgive people even seventy-seven times. Because we were forgiven from tremendous sin, we are asked to forgive others. Forgiveness is not about doer's mercy or boast, but about petitioner's right. It's the responsibilities of the haves for the have-nots.
