Scriptures

New King James Version (NKJV)

Luke 16
³¹ But he said to him, ’If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead.’ "
Luke 17
¹ Then He said to the disciples, "It is impossible that no offenses should come, but woe to him through whom they do come!
² It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.
³ Take heed to yourselves. If your brother sins against you, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.
⁴ And if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times in a day returns to you, saying, ’I repent,’ you shall forgive him."
⁵ And the apostles said to the Lord, "Increase our faith."
⁶ So the Lord said, "If you have faith as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ’Be pulled up by the roots and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.
⁷ And which of you, having a servant plowing or tending sheep, will say to him when he has come in from the field, ’Come at once and sit down to eat’?
⁸ But will he not rather say to him, ’Prepare something for my supper, and gird yourself and serve me till I have eaten and drunk, and afterward you will eat and drink’?
⁹ Does he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I think not.
¹⁰ So likewise you, when you have done all those things which you are commanded, say, ’We are unprofitable servants. We have done what was our duty to do.’ "
