How many time should we forgive ?
How many time should we forgive ? 70 x 7 times. Till the end of times with reference to Daniel’s 70x7 weeks prophecy. Jesus was making a reference to Daniel's prophecy. Why couldn't Jesus just said it plainly, that you should forgive someone forever. Always have an attitude of forgiveness. Better still an attitude that would not take offense. That would be an even more proactive perspective. Expect to be offended throughout the day, weeks and definitely in this lifetime. We do not know the whole picture. Maybe Jesus had just given a lecture on Daniel and 70x& weeks is still fresh on everyone's mind. Maybe Daniels 70x7 is such a common knowledge at that time that it need no explanation. Whatever it is : Dont take Offense ! You know actually 99% of the time we are fine. 99% of the situation we are fine and on top of it. Or evem 99% of the people. Its sometimes that 1% of situation and 1% of the people. That 1 or 2 that we have problem with. Them that make us jump. Those we have to be extra guarded if not find a more permanent solution.
