Luke:17
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Then he said unto the disciples ,
It is impossible that offenses will not come ,
but woe unto the one through whom they come !
*
It would be better for him if a millstone turned by an ass were placed around his neck and he [
were ]
cast into the sea than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble .
*
Take heed to yourselves :
If thy brother [
should ]
trespass against thee ,
rebuke him ;
and if he repents ,
forgive him .
*
And if he trespasses against thee seven times in a day and seven times in a day turns again to thee ,
saying ,
I repent ,
thou shalt forgive him .
*
And the apostles said unto the Lord ,
Increase our faith .
*
And the Lord said ,
If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed ,
ye might say unto this sycamore tree ,
Pluck thyself up by the root ,
and plant thyself in the sea ,
and it would obey you .
*
But which of you ,
having a servant plowing or feeding cattle ,
will say unto him by and by when he is come from the field ,
Go and sit down at the table ?
*
And will not rather say unto him ,
Make ready wherewith I may sup and gird thyself and serve me until I have eaten and drunken ,
and afterward thou shalt eat and drink ?
*
Does he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him ?
I think not .
*
So likewise ye ,
when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you ,
say ,
We are unprofitable servants :
we have done that which was our duty to do .
*
And it came to pass as he went to Jerusalem that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee .
*
And as he entered into a certain village ,
ten men that were lepers met him ,
who stood afar off
*
and lifted up their voices and said ,
Jesus ,
Master ,
have mercy on us .
*
When he saw [
them ],
he said unto them ,
Go show yourselves unto the priests .
And it came to pass that as they went ,
they were cleansed .
*
Then one of them ,
when he saw that he was healed ,
turned back and with a loud voice glorified God
*
and fell down on [
his ]
face at his feet ,
giving him thanks ;
and he was a Samaritan .
*
And Jesus answering said ,
Were there not ten cleansed ?
but where [
are ]
the nine ?
*
Were there not found any returning to give glory to God ,
except this stranger ?
*
And he said unto him ,
Arise ,
go ;
thy faith has saved thee .
*
And when he was asked of the Pharisees when the kingdom of God should come ,
he answered them and said ,
The kingdom of God does not come with observation ;
*
neither shall they say ,
Behold it here !
or ,
Behold it there !
for ,
behold ,
the kingdom of God is within you .
*
And he said unto the disciples ,
The days will come when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man ,
and ye shall not see [
it ].
*
And they shall say to you ,
Behold it here ,
or ,
Behold it there ;
do not go ,
nor follow [
them ].
*
For as the lightning ,
which shines from the region under heaven ,
shines in that which is under heaven ;
so also shall the Son of man be in his day .
*
But first he must suffer many things and be rejected of this generation .
*
And as it was in the days of Noah ,
so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man .
*
They ate ,
they drank ,
they married wives ,
they were given in marriage until the day that Noah entered into the ark ,
and the flood came and destroyed them all .
*
Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot ;
they ate ,
they drank ,
they bought ,
they sold ,
they planted ,
they built ;
*
but the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed [
them ]
all .
*
Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed .
*
In that day ,
he who shall be upon the housetop and his stuff in the house ,
let him not come down to take it away ;
and he that is in the field ,
let him likewise not turn back .
*
Remember Lot '
s wife .
*
Whosoever shall seek to save his soul shall lose it ,
and whosoever shall lose it shall cause it to live .
*
I tell you in that night there shall be two [
men ]
in one bed :
the one shall be taken ,
and the other shall be left .
*
Two [
women ]
shall be grinding together :
the one shall be taken ,
and the other left .
*
Two [
men ]
shall be in the field ;
the one shall be taken ,
and the other left .
*
And they answered and said unto him ,
Where ,
Lord ?
And he said unto them ,
Where the body [
is ],
there will the eagles be gathered together .:
