Luke 17:3 Context
1Then said he vnto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come, but wo vnto him through whom they come. 2It were better for him that a milstone were hanged about his necke, and he cast into the Sea, then that he should offend one of these little ones. 3¶ Take heed to your selues: If thy brother trespasse against thee, rebuke him, and if he repent, forgiue him. 4And if hee trespasse against thee seuen times in a day, and seuen times in a day turne againe to thee, saying, I repent, thou shalt forgiue him. 5And the Apostles said vnto the Lord, Increase our faith.
