nsb Luke:17:1-10
nsb@Luke:17:1 @ Jesus told his disciples: »Things that cause people to stumble do happen. However it is a terrible thing for someone to make them happen!
nsb@Luke:17:2 @ »It would be better for him to have a large millstone tied around his neck and be thrown into the sea than for him to cause one of these little ones to sin.
nsb@Luke:17:3 @ »So watch how you behave. Admonish your brother to repent when he sins. Forgive him when he repents.
nsb@Luke:17:4 @ »If he sins against you seven times in one day and repents each time, you must forgive him.«
nsb@Luke:17:5 @ The apostles said to the Lord: »Increase our faith.«
nsb@Luke:17:6 @ He answered: »If your faith was as big as a mustard seed; you could say to this mulberry tree, uproot yourself and plant yourself in the sea and it would obey you!
nsb@Luke:17:7 @ »Let us say you have a servant who is plowing or looking after the sheep. Do you tell him to hurry and eat his meal when he comes in from the field?
nsb@Luke:17:8 @ »No you do not. You say to him get my supper ready. Put on your apron and wait on me while I eat and drink. After that you may have your meal.
nsb@Luke:17:9 @ Does the servant deserve thanks for obeying orders?
nsb@Luke:17:10 @ The same applies to you. When you have done all you have been told to do, you say, we are unworthy servants. We have done what we ought to have done.«
