- 145x (Strong #863) The debts of Mt 6:12, 18:27 are to be
completely cancelled. Forgiveness remits punishment due to sinful
conduct, and signifies deliverance of the sinner from the Divinely
righteous penalty. Forgiveness is based upon the vicarious and
propitiatory sacrifice of Christ. Repentance and Confession are the
conditions for forgiveness, Lk 17:3, Mt 18:15-17. Sin is a debt
demanding expiation, and payment by way of punishment. Man to be
forgiven, must forgive as God forgives! Note: This is the </span><u>only</u><span style="text-decoration: none;">

<font size="3">It started because of the extraordinary response in the
form of fan mail following the publication of her first book. She had
already edited "Mr. Jones, Meet the Master," some 24 or so
sermons by her late husband Peter Marshall, who passed on to be with
the Lord in 1949 at the age of 46. In response to strong
encouragement from friends and publishers, out of 600 sermon
manuscripts she made her selection, and they were printed in the
exact format Peter used to deliver them. Now she had changed from
editor of an extremely successful publication - to author. One and a
half million copies of this were sold. Through death, Peter - through
his wife, reached far more than he could ever have done had he lived.</font></p>

thousand remarkable letters - something more was to come. Of course
Catherine could not answer them all. But now that Twentieth Century
Fox had sole rights to make a movie from her book - Catherine had a
problem. Allow me to let her state it in her own words to Sam Engel
of Twentieth Century Fox.</font></p>

As you will have noted, A Greek Word Study on "The Lord's Prayer"

<font size="3"><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">I
trust you will go back again and again to "The Lord's Prayer" and
saturate yourself in it. Jesus' disciples asked Him, "Lord, teach
us to pray as John the Baptist taught his disciples to pray." And
Jesus responded by saying, "After </span></span></span></font><u><font size="3"><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">this</span></span></font></u><font size="3"><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">

The word "pray" in the original language is in the </span></span></span></font><u><font size="3"><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">Imperative
Mood</span></span></font></u><font size="3"><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">.

commands in the Imperative Mood. This makes the vast part of this

is in the Subjunctive Mood. It could be that Jesus was saying, "It
