Luke 17 - Contemporary English Version (Anglicised) 2012(CEVUK)

Faith and service(Matthew 18.6,7,21,22; Mark 9.42)

1Jesus said to his disciples:

There will always be something that causes people to sin. But anyone who causes them to sin is in for trouble. A person who causes even one of my little followers to sin

2would be better off thrown into the ocean with a heavy stone tied around their neck.

3So be careful what you do.

Correct any followers of mine who sin, and forgive the ones who say they are sorry. came towards him. They stood at a distance

13and shouted, “Jesus, Master, have pity on us!”

14Jesus looked at them and said, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.”

On their way they were healed.

15When one of them discovered that he was healed, he came back, shouting praises to God.

16He bowed down at the feet of Jesus and thanked him. The man was from the country of Samaria.

17Jesus asked, “Weren't ten men healed? Where are the other nine?

18Why was this foreigner the only one who came back to thank God?”

19Then Jesus told the man, “You may get up and go. Your faith has made you well.”

God's kingdom(Matthew 24.23-28,37-41)

20Some Pharisees asked Jesus when God's kingdom would come. He answered, “God's kingdom isn't something you can see.

21There is no use saying, ‘Look! Here it is’ or ‘Look! There it is.’ God's kingdom is here with you.”

22Jesus said to his disciples:

The time will come when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, but you will not.

23When people say to you, “Look there,” or “Look here,” don't go looking for him.

24The day of the Son of Man will be like lightning flashing across the sky.

25But first he must suffer terribly and be rejected by the people of today.

26When the Son of Man comes, things will be just as they were when Noah lived.

28When Lot lived, people were also eating and drinking. They were buying, selling, planting, and building. should go down into the house to get anything. No one in a field should go back to the house for anything.

33People who try to save their lives will lose them, and those who lose their lives will save them.

37Then Jesus' disciples spoke up, “But where will this happen, Lord?”

Jesus said, “Where there is a corpse, there will always be vultures.”
