Matthew 18:23-25 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

          23Because of this, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.
          24As he began the settlements, a debtor was brought to him owing ten thousand talents.
          25Since the man was unable to pay, the master ordered that he be sold to pay his debt, along with his wife and children and everything he owned.
