Luke 17
Day 61 of 90 · 90 Days Through the Gospels
And Jesus said to his disciples: It cannot be, but that offences will come: but woe to him, by whom they come.
Better for him were it, if a millstone were suspended to his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.
Take heed to yourselves. If thy brother transgress, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.
CONTEXT
