Luke 7:36-50

Luke:7.36 Then one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And He went to the Pharisee's house, and sat down to eat. Luke:7.37 And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that [Jesus] sat at the table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil, Luke:7.38 and stood at His feet behind [Him] weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and wiped [them] with the hair of her head; and she kissed His feet and anointed [them] with the fragrant oil. Luke:7.39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw [this,] he spoke to himself, saying, "This man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what manner of woman [this is] who is touching Him, for she is a sinner." Luke:7.40 And Jesus answered and said to him, "Simon, I have something to say to you." So he said, "Teacher, say it." Luke:7.41 "There was a certain creditor who had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty. Luke:7.42 "And when they had nothing with which to repay, he freely forgave them both. Tell Me, therefore, which of them will love him more?" Luke:7.43 Simon answered and said, "I suppose the [one] whom he forgave more." And He said to him, "You have rightly judged." Luke:7.44 Then He turned to the woman and said to Simon, "Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no water for My feet, but she has washed My feet with her tears and wiped [them] with the hair of her head. Luke:7.45 "You gave Me no kiss, but this woman has not ceased to kiss My feet since the time I came in. Luke:7.46 "You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with fragrant oil. Luke:7.47 "Therefore I say to you, her sins, [which are] many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, [the same] loves little." Luke:7.48 Then He said to her, "Your sins are forgiven." Luke:7.49 And those who sat at the table with Him began to say to themselves, "Who is this who even forgives sins?" Luke:7.50 Then He said to the woman, "Your faith has saved you. Go in peace."

Luke 17:20-37.

Luke 17.20-37 God's Kingdom Some Pharisees asked Jesus when God's kingdom would come. He answered, "God's kingdom isn't something you can see. There is no use saying, 'Look! Here it is' or 'Look! There it is.' God's kingdom is here with you." Jesus 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. When people say to you, "Look there," or "Look here," don't go looking for him. The day of the Son of Man will be like lightning flashing across the sky. But first he must suffer terribly and be rejected by the people of today. When the Son of Man comes, things will be just as they were when Noah lived. People were eating, drinking, and getting married right up to the day when Noah went into the big boat. Then the flood came and drowned everyone on earth. When Lot lived, people were also eating and drinking. They were buying, s...

Psalm 85 (Good News Translation)   1LORD, you have been merciful to your land; you have made Israel prosperous again. 2You have forgiven your people's sins and pardoned all their wrongs. 3You stopped being angry with them and held back your furious rage. 4Bring us back, O God our savior, and stop being displeased with us! 5Will you be angry with us forever? Will your anger never cease? 6Make us strong again, and we, your people, will praise you. 7Show us your constant love, O LORD, and give us your saving help. 8I am listening to what the LORD God is saying; he promises peace to us, his own people, if we do not go back to our foolish ways. 9Surely he is ready to save those who honor him, and his saving presence will remain in our land. 10Love and faithfulness will meet; righteousness and peace will embrace. 11Human loyalty will reach up from the earth, and God's righteousness will look down from heaven. 12The LORD will make us prosperous, and our land will produce rich harv...
