Can not a glimpse of the same compassion that was so acceptable to him, warm his bosom, and beam on his face and lips? It seems impossible that he could be so cruel, but so it was; he thrust him into prison till he should pay the debt. It is almost incredible, but Jesus says he went out and cast him into prison. This wasa s1rict and bitter justice to enact, nottobe approved by the merciful king. While the fellow-servant mourns in prison, retribution is preparing for the hard-hearted and unforgiving man that placed him there. The Lord was wroth to see his goodness and mercy so requited, and delivers the real transgressor to the tormentors, till he shall pay all and realize his sin., This is the narrative our blessed Lord gave to his listening disciples, and may all the house of Israel know assuredly. that herein lies a wonderful lesson that should sink deep into the heart of every circumcised child, belonging to the tribes of his inheritance. By this illustration he shows that mercy and forgiveness should rule in the hearts of his disciples, and be the polar star in his kingdom; and he concludes the narrative in these striking words: " So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts. forgive not every one his brother, their trespasses." There is no lesson more clearly and forcibly incu_lcated within the compass of God's book than that affection and kindness are to be the distinguishing features of his kingdom.

2015 Christy Award finalist! 2015 ECPA Christian Book Award Winner! At the trial of Christ, Theophilus, brilliant young assessore raised in the Roman aristocracy, stands behind Pontius Pilate and whispers, “Offer to release Barabbas.” The strategy backfires, and Theophilus never forgets the sight of an innocent man unjustly suffering the worst of all possible deaths—Roman crucifixion. Three decades later, Theophilus has proven himself in the legal ranks of the Roman Empire. He has survived the insane rule of Caligula and has weathered the cruel tyrant’s quest to control the woman he loves. He has endured the mindless violence of the gladiator games and the backstabbing intrigue of the treason trials. Now he must face another evil Caesar, defending the man Paul in Nero’s deranged court. Can Theophilus mount a defense that will keep another innocent man from execution? The advocate’s first trial altered the course of history. His last will change the fate of an empire.
