Mark 11:25-26 And when you stand praying, forgive, if you have ought against any… A great boy in a school was so abusive to the younger ones, that the teacher took the vote of the school whether he should be expelled. All the small boys voted to expel him, except one, who was scarcely five years old. Yet he knew very well that the bad boy would probably continue to abuse him. "Why, then, did you vote for him to stay?" said the teacher. "Because if he is expelled, perhaps he will not learn any more about God, and so he will be more wicked still." "Do you forgive him then?" inquired the teacher. "Yes," said the little fellow; "papa and mamma and you all forgive me when I do wrong; God forgives me too and I must do the same." Parallel Verses KJV: And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. |
