There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty. And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. – Luke 7:41,42
God does not play fast and loose with His creatures—forgive them and then punish them. I never shall believe in God loving a man, today, and casting Him away tomorrow! The gifts and calling of God are without repentance on His part. Justification is not an act which can be reversed and followed with damnation. No! No! “Whom He justified, them He also glorified.”—
“If sin is pardoned I‘m secure,
Death has no sting beside
The Law gave sin its damning power,
But Christ, my Ransom, died.”
By His death, our Redeemer effectually swept away sin once and for all, and He removed all the curse of the Law. In the offering of bullocks and lambs there was a continual remembrance made of sin, for the blood of bulls and of goats could not take away sin. But the Apostle writes, “This Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down by the right hand of God,” because His work was effectually and eternally done.
Take note that you cannot be saved except by the free forgiveness of God through the precious blood of Christ. The 50‐pence debtor must obtain his discharge by Grace alone. It is also a most blessed thing to perceive that he forgave the 500‐pence debtor with equal freeness… You that are over head and ears in debt to God can be freely forgiven by the same Lord who forgives the smaller debtors!
