offence
«Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh! / Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.»
«Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner, / And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.»
«Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: / That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.»
«No man lives without jostling and being jostled; in all ways he has to elbow himself through the world, giving and receiving offence.»
