The Parable of the Two Debtors

Luke 7:41-43 (NIV)

A moneylender had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, the other fifty. Neither could pay, so he forgave both. Jesus asked, "Which one will love him more?" The answer was the one who was forgiven more. He then said to the woman who had anointed His feet, "Your sins are forgiven." The depth of your gratitude reflects the depth of your understanding of grace.
