Kisses of Forgiveness Many things to confess Need for confession Simple statement (v. 21) Generic confession O.K.? Need for confession Simon (Acts 8:22, 24) Commanded (1 John 1:9)

Kisses of Total Restoration Forgiven and taken back Willing to be a servant (v. 21) Restored to former position Same today Must forgive (2 Corinthians 2:5-11) No partial forgiveness, “probation”

Kisses of Joy Father’s rejoicing Should be a time of joy Lost sheep and lost coin (vv. 1-10) All are about joy Should be a time of joy Some wonder how long this time Fruits of repentance (Matthew 3:8)

Kisses of Assurance Assured that all was well Warm reception Comfort For Christians today who return Can fall (Jude 24, 25) We have security (2 Peter 1:5-11)

Kisses of Fellowship Fellowship renewed Maintain fellowship Severed by sin Brother’s rejection didn’t affect it Maintain fellowship Walking in the light (1 John 1:1-10) Cannot refuse those God accepts

Conclusion All have been the younger brother Avoid being like the older brother
