Day 21: Forgiveness of My Neighbour’s Environmental Sins

This parable invites us to consider God’s standards. God, with great generosity, opens the Kingdom and forgiveness to everyone who asks.

When we fail to take up God’s offer of forgiveness, and learn to forgive like God does, we continue living together in this hell.
