FORGIVE = PROFITABLE

A mother recovered from bone cancer when she joined the show Adoration and Healing, in the Mulia hotel in Jakarta, on March 28, 2011. Mother was suffering from bone cancer, because she was very angry to her ​​husband and she has harbored anger for years. Mother is recovering because she forgave her husband's fraud and bad habits.
In the parable in Matthew's story, the servant who owed ​​10,000 talents (+ 300 million dollars) is not willing to forgive / release / give time to his friend who owes 100 dinars (+ 500 dollars). Greed and do not want to share from the servant, making himself into the jail, as his action to his friend,.
  (If the servants are willing to share, he's still a lot of luck, its debts to the king 600 000 times more than his friend owed ​​him)
[The calculation of value based on a Bible dictionary and a personal estimate: 1 talent = 6000 dinars, 1 dinar = wage workers a day (estimately, 5 dollars/ day)]
Gospel Reflection: The parable of forgiveness
1. Why Jesus used the parable of the kingdom of heaven like a kingdom on earth? Why did Jesus say one must forgive a lot, 70 x 7 times?
2. Why Peter asked about forgive his brother? What Peter
think about the answer of Jesus?
3. If Peter, a mathematician, who heard Jesus' answer and calculate that 70 x 7 times = 490 times, Does that mean that after 16 months, someone can no longer forgive his brother who sins every day to him?
4. Why is the servant until unable to pay its debts to the king? Why the servant did not want to liberate his friend’s debt?
5. Why did his friends report to the king about the servant’s action to his friend?
6. What is the reason the king so that he punishes the servant who had been released his debt?
