Teachings about Forgiveness and Faith
One day Jesus said to his disciples, “There will always be temptations to sin, but what sorrow awaits the person who does the tempting!
One day Jesus said to his disciples, “There will always be temptations to sin, but what sorrow awaits the person who does the tempting!
Temptations and Trespasses
Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come!
Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come!
It would be better to be thrown into the sea with a millstone hung around your neck than to cause one of these little ones to fall into sin.
It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.
Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.
Even if that person wrongs you seven times a day and each time turns again and asks forgiveness, you must forgive.”
And if he trespass against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again to thee, saying, I repent; thou shalt forgive him.
The apostles said to the Lord, “Show us how to increase our faith.”
The Power of Faith
And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.
And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.
The Lord answered, “If you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘May you be uprooted and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you!
And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you.
“When a servant comes in from plowing or taking care of sheep, does his master say, ‘Come in and eat with me’?
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 to meat?
No, he says, ‘Prepare my meal, put on your apron, and serve me while I eat. Then you can eat later.’
And will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward thou shalt eat and drink?
And does the master thank the servant for doing what he was told to do? Of course not.
Doth he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I trow not.
In the same way, when you obey me you should say, ‘We are unworthy servants who have simply done our duty.’”
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.
Ten Healed of Leprosy
As Jesus continued on toward Jerusalem, he reached the border between Galilee and Samaria.
Jesus Heals Ten Lepers
And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.
And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.
As he entered a village there, ten men with leprosy stood at a distance,
And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:
crying out, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”
And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.
And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.
One of them, when he saw that he was healed, came back to Jesus, shouting, “Praise God!”
And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God,
He fell to the ground at Jesus’ feet, thanking him for what he had done. This man was a Samaritan.
And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.
Jesus asked, “Didn’t I heal ten men? Where are the other nine?
And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?
Has no one returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?”
There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger.
And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.
The Coming of the Kingdom
And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:
And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:
Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo 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.
People will tell you, ‘Look, there is the Son of Man,’ or ‘Here he is,’ but don’t go out and follow them.
And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after them, nor follow them.
For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one part under heaven, shineth unto the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day.
But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation.
“When the Son of Man returns, it will be like it was in Noah’s day.
And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
In those days, the people enjoyed banquets and parties and weddings right up to the time Noah entered his boat and the flood came and destroyed them all.
They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
“And the world will be as it was in the days of Lot. People went about their daily business — eating and drinking, buying and selling, farming and building —
Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;
until the morning Lot left Sodom. Then fire and burning sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.
But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
Yes, it will be ‘business as usual’ right up to the day when the Son of Man is revealed.
Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.
On that day a person out on the deck of a roof must not go down into the house to pack. A person out in the field must not return home.
In that day, he which 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 return back.
If you cling to your life, you will lose it, and if you let your life go, you will save it.
Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.
That night two people will be asleep in one bed; one will be taken, the other left.
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.
And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.
