There is no doubt about what Jesus is speaking of in these verses. Wow!
Sin, Faith, Duty
Luke 17:1-3
1 Jesus said to his disciples: “Things that cause people to stumble are bound to come, but woe to anyone through whom they come. 2 It would be better for them to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around their neck than to cause one of these little ones to stumble. 3 So watch yourselves.
We are to help, not hinder. Be a blessing not a taker. To intentionally cause someone to fall or be harmed in any way is worse than so many other things.
This is a warning for those who speak the Word of God. To know that if it is ever used in a perverse way to control people rather than free them, woe to them. Instead, be considerate of the young and the new Christians. Count and mark your words, for our responsibility is great. To whom much is given, much is required. Pray as you share the word, so that the Holy Spirit will guide your words.
Amen.
