This parabl;e is told in response to Peter's question: "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?" - Matt 18:21
The lesson of the parable is found in verse 35:
Matt 18:35 "So My heavenly Father also will do to you if each of you, from his heart, does not forgive his brother his trespasses."
In the parable God is the King. All His servants had a great debt of sin which they were unable to pay. In wonderful grace and compassion, the Lord paid the debt and granted full and free forgiveness. Suppose some Christian wrongs another. When rebuked, he apologizes and asks forgiveness. But the offended believer refuses. He himself has been forgiven millions of dollars, but won't forgive a few hundred. Will the King allow such behavior to go unpunished? No, the culprit will be chastened in this life and will suffer loss at the Judgment Seat of Christ.
