Discourse: Jesus Teaches on Perseverance In Luke 15:1 to Luke 17:10 Jesus teaches a continuous discourse that places emphasis on perseverance. He discusses our need to love the sinner (Luke 15:1-32), to be good stewards of what God has given us in this life (Luke 16:1-13), to avoid covetousness (Luke 16:14-31) and offenses (Luke 17:1-4), and to live a lifestyle of servanthood as an expression of faith in God (Luke 17:5-10).
