21. A TIME OF SHARING WITH GOD’S CHILDREN OF ALL AGES

22. THE NEW TESTAMENT SCRIPTURE: LUKE 17:1-6 Jesus said to His disciples: “Things that cause people to sin are bound to come, but woe to that person through whom they come. It would be better for him to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around his neck than for him to cause one of these little ones to sin. So watch yourselves.

23. If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him. If he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times comes back to you and says,‘I repent,’ forgive him.” The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!” Jesus replied, “If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you.”

24. #602 ‘I HAVE DECIDED TO FOLLOW JESUS’ I have decided to follow Jesus; 3x No Turning back, No turning back. The world behind me, the cross before me; 3x No Turning back, No turning back. Tho’ none go with me, still I will follow; 3x No Turning back, No turning back. Will you decide now, to follow Jesus? 3x No Turning back, No turning back.
