Who is hardest for you to forgive, and why?
Read it in contextLuke 23:31–37
31 For if they treat the green wood this way, what will become of the dry?” 32 Along with him, two others who were criminals were also being taken out to be executed. 33 When they reached the spot known as the Skull, they crucified him there, and the criminals too, one at his right hand and the other at his left. 34 Jesus kept saying, “Father, forgive them; they do not know what they are doing.” Dividing up his clothes, they cast lots for them. 35 The people stood looking on, and the leaders were even jeering at him: “He saved others. Let him save himself, if this fellow is the Messiah of God, the Chosen One!” 36 The soldiers made fun of him too; they came up and held out sour wine to him 37 and said, “If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself.”
