WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:06.920 Chapter 18 At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the 00:06.920 --> 00:08.380 greatest in the kingdom of heaven? 00:08.600 --> 00:13.240 And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, 00:13.500 --> 00:18.180 and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as 00:18.180 --> 00:21.900 little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. 00:23.380 --> 00:28.900 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest 00:28.900 --> 00:30.280 in the kingdom of heaven. 00:31.760 --> 00:36.420 And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name, receiveth me. 00:37.500 --> 00:42.640 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones, which believe in me, it were better 00:42.640 --> 00:47.060 for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the 00:47.060 --> 00:48.100 depth of the sea. 00:49.880 --> 00:55.720 Woe unto the world because of offenses, for it must needs be that offenses come. 00:56.760 --> 00:59.500 But woe to that man by whom the offense cometh. 01:00.600 --> 01:05.840 Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from 01:05.840 --> 01:06.060 thee. 01:06.880 --> 01:11.680 It is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two 01:11.680 --> 01:14.760 hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire. 01:16.220 --> 01:19.580 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee. 01:19.580 --> 01:25.700 It is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes 01:25.700 --> 01:27.200 to be cast into hell fire. 01:29.100 --> 01:32.000 Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones. 01:32.980 --> 01:38.600 For I say unto you, that in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my 01:38.600 --> 01:39.820 Father which is in heaven. 01:41.360 --> 01:44.340 For the Son of Man is come to save that which was lost. 01:45.720 --> 01:50.620 How think ye, If a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, 01:51.460 --> 01:55.480 doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh 01:55.480 --> 01:56.700 that which is gone astray? 01:57.700 --> 02:03.900 And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that sheep 02:03.900 --> 02:06.440 than of the ninety and nine which went not astray. 02:07.600 --> 02:11.520 Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven that one of these 02:11.520 --> 02:12.680 little ones should perish. 02:13.860 --> 02:19.000 Moreover, if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault 02:19.000 --> 02:20.420 between thee and him alone. 02:21.360 --> 02:24.060 If he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother. 02:24.720 --> 02:29.140 But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the 02:29.140 --> 02:32.020 mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established. 02:33.380 --> 02:36.680 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church. 02:37.220 --> 02:41.700 But if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and 02:41.700 --> 02:42.320 a publican. 02:43.220 --> 02:48.420 Verily I say unto you, whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, 02:48.740 --> 02:52.520 and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. 02:53.680 --> 02:59.180 Again I say unto you, that if two of you shall agree on earth, as touching anything 02:59.180 --> 03:03.740 that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. 03:04.800 --> 03:09.520 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the 03:09.520 --> 03:10.120 midst of them. 03:10.500 --> 03:15.260 Then came Peter to him and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against 03:15.260 --> 03:18.280 me, and I forgive him, till seven times? 03:18.620 --> 03:24.960 Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee until seven times, but until seventy times 03:24.960 --> 03:25.340 seven. 03:26.620 --> 03:30.920 Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take 03:30.920 --> 03:31.740 account of his servants. 03:32.520 --> 03:36.180 And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him which owed him 03:36.180 --> 03:37.600 ten thousand talents. 03:38.840 --> 03:42.860 But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, 03:43.360 --> 03:47.740 and his wife and children in all that he had, and payment to be made. 03:48.580 --> 03:52.700 The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, 03:52.840 --> 03:55.160 have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. 03:56.340 --> 03:59.560 Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, 03:59.960 --> 04:01.160 and forgave him the debt. 04:02.080 --> 04:05.600 But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellow-servants, 04:05.820 --> 04:07.360 which owed him an hundred pence. 04:08.080 --> 04:12.160 And he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou 04:12.160 --> 04:12.520 owest. 04:13.500 --> 04:16.920 And his fellow-servant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, 04:17.400 --> 04:19.480 Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. 04:20.260 --> 04:25.240 And he would not, but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt. 04:26.080 --> 04:30.900 So when his fellow-servants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and 04:30.900 --> 04:32.680 told unto their lord all that was done. 04:33.560 --> 04:38.660 Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, 04:39.320 --> 04:42.480 I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desirest me. 04:43.420 --> 04:48.320 Shouldst not thou also have had compassion on thy fellow-servant, even as I had pity 04:48.320 --> 04:48.840 on thee? 04:49.540 --> 04:54.600 And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all 04:54.600 --> 04:55.680 that was due unto him. 04:56.540 --> 05:01.540 So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts 05:01.540 --> 05:04.840 forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.
