Temptations to Sin

Luke 17

1 Then He said to the disciples, a "It is impossible that no 1 offenses should come, but b 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 2 offend one of these little ones. 3 "Take heed to yourselves. c If your brother sins 3 against you, d 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 4 to you, saying, 'I repent,' you shall forgive him."
