<strong>The</strong> <strong>Book</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Jesus</strong> Chapter Twelve: <strong>The</strong> life <strong>of</strong> <strong>Jesus</strong> from <strong>the</strong> Gospels <strong>of</strong> Mat<strong>the</strong>w, Mark, Luke, John in easy-to-read, chronological format.<br />

Forgiving Your Bro<strong>the</strong>r<br />

JESUS. [to his disciples]<br />

If your bro<strong>the</strong>r does something wrong against you, tell him what he did to you and how it effected you, if he's sorry, forgive him. And<br />

if he wrongs you seven times a day and seven times a day comes back to you and says, "I'm sorry", you must forgive him.<br />

Luke 17:4<br />

APOSTLES.[to <strong>Jesus</strong>]<br />

Increase our faith.<br />

JESUS.<br />

If you had faith <strong>the</strong> size <strong>of</strong> a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, "Pluck yourself up by <strong>the</strong> root and plant yourself in <strong>the</strong><br />

sea", and it would obey you.<br />

Luke 17:5,6<br />

Being Humble Servants<br />

JESUS.<br />

Which one <strong>of</strong> you who has a servant that was ploughing or minding sheep, would eventually say to him when he returned from <strong>the</strong><br />

fields, 'Come and sit down have your meal right now?' Would he not be more likely to say, 'Get my dinner ready and set <strong>the</strong> table;<br />

clean yourself up and wait on me until I have finished eating and drinking. After I'm finished, you may eat and drink?' Must he be<br />

grateful to <strong>the</strong> servant for doing what he was told, I think not? So likewise with you: when you have finished all <strong>the</strong> things that you<br />

were directed to do, you should say, 'We are merely servants: we have done no more than what we were supposed to do.'<br />

Luke 17:7-10<br />

NARRATOR.<br />

As <strong>Jesus</strong> was on <strong>the</strong> way to Jerusalem, he travelled along <strong>the</strong> border between Samaria and Galilee. As he entered one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> villages,<br />

ten lepers came to meet him. Keeping <strong>the</strong>mselves at a distance, <strong>the</strong>y stood <strong>the</strong>re and called to him:<br />

LEPERS.<br />

<strong>Jesus</strong>! Master! Have mercy on us!<br />

NARRATOR.<br />

When he saw <strong>the</strong>m he said:<br />

JESUS.<br />

Go and show yourselves to <strong>the</strong> priests.<br />

NARRATOR.<br />

Now it occurred that as <strong>the</strong>y went <strong>the</strong>ir way, <strong>the</strong>y were cleansed. One <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> lepers, a Samaritan, when he found himself cured, turned<br />

back and started praising God at <strong>the</strong> top <strong>of</strong> his voice. Going to <strong>Jesus</strong>, <strong>the</strong> man fell on his face at his feet and thanked him.<br />
