It is all about forgiveness and love: We need to remove all hate, vengeance, wrath, and evil from our beings!

It is all about forgiveness and love: We need to remove all hate, vengeance, wrath, and evil from our beings! We see so much hate today, especially from the liberal left, they hate and have so much TDS and evil in them, almost demonic it seems. We see their hypocrisy where they say mercy for me, but not for thee. We even see some fake false religions who say they are all about peace, yet promote hate, vengeance, wrath, murders, terrorism, and so much evil all around the world, like all the ones behind the 911 attacks. God does not approve of their false religion or hate. All this hate, vengeance, and evil never wins! The truth comes out and God knows all! He will make it right. But God wants us to forgive and love. We need to turn from sin, hate, vengeance, wrath, and evil. I know I have even seen it toward me, with hate and cancel culture if you do not join their club of hate and woke ideology, you are cancelled, ignored, avoided, and dismissed, I saw at in more work and from old coworkers and people I knew, they want you to join their hate club of misery and negativity, but I never will. But we need to remember that the Lord is kind and merciful, slow to anger, and rich in compassion! We all have a chance to change our ways, to love more, to forgive more, and to turn from all sin, hate, and vengeance. We need to remember that none of us live just for ourselves! Jesus reminds us in John that we need to follow His new commandment, says the Lord: to love one another as I have loved you! Jesus loved and we are called to as well. God gave us Jesus as our model, our example how to live, we are called to follow Him! To reflect, forgive, imitate, and love like Him! No sin, no vengeance, no hate or evil! Just love and forgiveness always! Remember, no payback, no vengeance, no wrath, just forgiveness, 77 times like it says here in the Bible readings! We need to remember something very important, God has forgiven us so much in our lifetimes, if He forgives us, we need to learn to forgive too, we need to learn to love like Jesus more and not hold grudges and be vengeful like the readings talk about today in this week's mass readings! Don't be an unforgiving servant y'all! It is all about love and forgiveness in this life!

Reading 1

Sirach 27:30—28:7

Wrath and anger are hateful things,
yet the sinner hugs them tight.
The vengeful will suffer the LORD’s vengeance,
for he remembers their sins in detail.
Forgive your neighbor’s injustice;
then when you pray, your own sins will be forgiven.
Could anyone nourish anger against another
and expect healing from the LORD?
Could anyone refuse mercy to another like himself,
can he seek pardon for his own sins?
If one who is but flesh cherishes wrath,
who will forgive his sins?
Remember your last days, set enmity aside;
remember death and decay, and cease from sin!
Think of the commandments, hate not your neighbor;
remember the Most High’s covenant, and overlook faults.

Responsorial Psalm

Bless the LORD, O my soul;
and all my being, bless his holy name.
Bless the LORD, O my soul,
and forget not all his benefits.
R. The Lord is kind and merciful, slow to anger, and rich in compassion.
He pardons all your iniquities,
heals all your ills.
He redeems your life from destruction,
crowns you with kindness and compassion.
R. The Lord is kind and merciful, slow to anger, and rich in compassion.

nor does he requite us according to our crimes.
R. The Lord is kind and merciful, slow to anger, and rich in compassion.
For as the heavens are high above the earth,
so surpassing is his kindness toward those who fear him.
As far as the east is from the west,
so far has he put our transgressions from us.
R. The Lord is kind and merciful, slow to anger, and rich in compassion.

Reading 2

Romans 14:7-9

Brothers and sisters:
None of us lives for oneself, and no one dies for oneself.
For if we live, we live for the Lord,
and if we die, we die for the Lord;
so then, whether we live or die, we are the Lord’s.
For this is why Christ died and came to life,
that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.

Alleluia

John 13:34

R. Alleluia, alleluia.
I give you a new commandment, says the Lord:
love one another as I have loved you.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.

Gospel

Matthew 18:21-35

Peter approached Jesus and asked him,
“Lord, if my brother sins against me,
how often must I forgive?
As many as seven times?”
Jesus answered, “I say to you, not seven times but seventy-seven times.
That is why the kingdom of heaven may be likened to a king
who decided to settle accounts with his servants.
When he began the accounting,
a debtor was brought before him who owed him a huge amount.
Since he had no way of paying it back,
his master ordered him to be sold,
along with his wife, his children, and all his property,
in payment of the debt.
At that, the servant fell down, did him homage, and said,
‘Be patient with me, and I will pay you back in full.’
Moved with compassion the master of that servant
let him go and forgave him the loan.
When that servant had left, he found one of his fellow servants
who owed him a much smaller amount.
He seized him and started to choke him, demanding,
‘Pay back what you owe.’
Falling to his knees, his fellow servant begged him,
‘Be patient with me, and I will pay you back.’
But he refused.
Instead, he had the fellow servant put in prison
until he paid back the debt.
Now when his fellow servants saw what had happened,
they were deeply disturbed, and went to their master
and reported the whole affair.
His master summoned him and said to him, ‘You wicked servant!
I forgave you your entire debt because you begged me to.
Should you not have had pity on your fellow servant,
as I had pity on you?’
Then in anger his master handed him over to the torturers
until he should pay back the whole debt.
So will my heavenly Father do to you,
unless each of you forgives your brother from your heart.”
