New Testament

Matthew Chapter 18

   

"Who's top in heaven?" Christ's men asked. Before their eyes
Christ took a child and said: "The one humble likewise!"
Further He said: "Children's angels God's face behold!"
And: "It's better to enter heav'n maimed, than hell whole.
If your brother sins against you, with him reason,
Failing, take others, then the church, then cry "heathen!"
If two of you agree on a thing asked, Father will adhere,
Where two or three are gathered in my name, I'm there."
Peter asks "How oft shall I forgive one? Sev'n times?"
"Not sev'n, but seventy times sev'n!" the good Lord chimes.
He then tells a parable of debts to explain
If Father forgives us, we must others the same.
