Matthew 18 begins with a question about "who is greatest in the kingdom", probably a good starting point for anyone studying overcomers. The chapter ends with who is the least in the kingdom, those who are petty and do not forgive their brothers from their heart, these ones are "cast into prison until they can pay all they owe" which based on the initial debt of 10,000 talents (perhaps $10 million in today's currency) is going to be a very long time.

Again, this concept of debtors prison in this parable is similar to the discussion of being thrown into "outer darkness".
