Questions about God’s forgiveness vs. human forgiveness, what John 20:23 means when it says the disciples had the authority to forgive sins, and whether Luke 12:47 means Christians can expect some punishment from God. (Tim fills in for Amy.)

• How would you compare God’s forgiveness to human forgiveness in terms of how the restoration is accomplished?
• What does John 20:23 mean when it says the disciples have the authority to forgive (or withhold forgiveness for) sin?
• Does Luke 12:47 mean Christians can expect to receive some sort of punishment from God?
