Today's Verse:
kjv@Matthew:18:15 kjv@Matthew:18:16 kjv@Matthew:18:17 kjv@Matthew:18:18 kjv@Matthew:18:19 kjv@Matthew:18:20 kjv@Matthew:23:4 Jesus speaks of the religious binding heavy burdens. This passage is often taken out of context to go along with the binding or casting out of Satan or devils. Which it could not mean because there are no devils to be bound or loosed in heaven. And why would Jesus allow them to be so according to our word? It is also used in the sense of enemies and sicknesses and riches which is similarly ridiculous if to be loosed in heaven as well. What in the remaining context suggests such? There is however collaborative evidence that the Father will forgive us in Heaven as we forgive those trespass against us. This passage is also taken out of context to go along with the notion of guaranteed answered prayer for whatever two or more pray for. What that has to do with the context of reconciliation between brothers and the binding agreements they make between each other and the body of Christ becomes mostly absent. The logic held is that the string of context Matthew has carefully woven together from kjv@Matthew:18:1 takes a sudden vacation verses kjv@Matthew:18:18-20 only to pick back up kjv@Matthew:18:21-35 where in kjv@Matthew:18:27 the lord of the servant looses/forgives him from his debt. All this so that the non abiding petitioner can have whatever it is from the Father that they want. Further Resources: Comment Board:Matthew:18:15-20
