Q4. Settling before Getting to 'Court'


Recommended Posts

Q4. (Matthew 5:25-26) What is the point of Jesus' parable of settling out of court? Who are we supposed to settle with, according to this parable? What does "settling" entail? What are the reasons that we should settle?

Settle matters quickly is Jesus' point.  He does not want us to be burdened by chains of unforgiveness and wrong-doing.  Settling with an adversary who is taking you to court before you get there. Settling entails making amends and paying the debt.  Jesus wants us to keep short accounts that nothing would hinder us from His Kingdom and from holiness.
