Matthew 6:11-15

[11] Give us this day our daily bread,
[12]  and forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
[13]  And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

[14] For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, [15] but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
DEEP SHEET:  Sermon Study Questions
1.      In what ways have you struggled to view God as your “Forgiving Father”?  Are you confident that God is ready and able to forgive when you ask?  (Exodus 34:6-7; Psalm 32:5; Nehemiah 9:17; Ephesians 1:7)
2.      What does it mean to recognize that “all sin goes straight to heaven”?  (Psalm 51:4)
3.      How do “debts,” “trespasses,” and “sins” capture different aspects of our wrongdoing and guilt before God?  (Matthew 6:12, 14-15; Luke 11:4)
4.      How does Colossians 2:13-14 vividly portray our “Past Pardon”?
5.      Why do Christians, those who have already been forgiven, need to ask God continually for forgiveness? What are some of the negative effects of not doing this daily? (1 John 1:9)
6.      In what ways have we already seen the relationship between God’s forgiveness of us and our forgiveness of others in the Sermon on the Mount?
7.      Who do you need to forgive, and how might a lack of forgiveness be hindering your prayer life? (Matthew 5:7; Mark 11:25)
