Luke 17:1-10 - You Are A Forgiver


Listen Later

In this sermon from Luke 17:1–10, we explore Jesus’ powerful teaching on temptation, faith, and forgiveness. Within the context of Luke 15–17, Jesus reminds His disciples that forgiveness is not optional—it’s central to our identity as followers of Christ.

Jesus uses the striking image of a millstone to show the seriousness of leading others into sin, especially those new in faith. He commands us to forgive—again and again—just as He forgives us. Even when forgiveness feels impossible, faith gives us the strength to uproot bitterness and cast it into the sea.

Through this message, you’ll be reminded that:

✅ Forgiveness is a decision, not a feeling.
✅ Faith, even the size of a mustard seed, is powerful enough to heal relationships.
✅ Your identity in Christ means you are both forgiven and a forgiver.
✅ Humility protects us from pride even when we forgive.

As we live out our faith, Jesus calls us to remember: “We are unworthy servants; we have only done our duty.”
