Gospel of Luke

Jesus Orders the Supper

Luke 22:14 We’re going to prepare our hearts for the blessing of celebrating the communion ordinance. And in preparing our hearts, it’s the Lord who has brought us into a special text in our study of Luke’s gospel, and it’s the institution of the Lord’s table. This is what the Lord set up for us, set this table, prepared it for us,…

Preparation for Passover 

Luke 22:7-13 You can open your Bibles to Luke 22 as we come to verse 7 of Luke 22, and as we come to this section, Luke 2:7 through 13, we are less than 24 hours away from the crucifixion. With all that’s ahead, it’s amazing to think about all that can happen in a single 24 hour period. But we’re not…

Solving the Jesus Problem

Luke 22:1-6 Well, we are entering into the final section of Luke’s gospel this morning. It’s a very long chapter at 71 verses, second only to the first chapter of Luke, which we have survived.

We’ve come through, as you know, through Jesus’ prediction concerning one of the most dreadful events in history, which is the destruction of Jerusalem and its…

Destruction of Jerusalem, Part 3

Luke 21:23-24 Well, we are in Luke’s record, his account of the Olivet Discourse in Luke 21. You’ll want to turn there. And over the last two weeks, we’ve seen how Jesus has been preparing his disciples for the siege on Jerusalem. He’s been shepherding them out of the danger and into a place of safety. And as we begin this morning,…

Destruction of Jerusalem, Part 2

Luke 21:20-24 Well, we are steadily making our way through the Olivet Discourse in Luke 21, and we have come to, you want to turn there in your Bibles. But we’ve come to the portion in Luke 21 in which Jesus predicts the desolation of Jerusalem. So dark times, dark themes, ominous warnings abound in this section. The desolation of Jerusalem is…
