My Brother’s Keeper, Part 3

Luke 17:5-10 Open your Bibles to Luke 17 and today we are following up on a two-part series that we’ve called, My Brother’s Keeper, which is the first. It’s in the first ten verses Luke 17:1-10. After Jesus addressed the Pharisees at the end of the 16th chapter, we’ve seen that he has turned to his disciples and he speaks to them with concern. Because hell is real. Because hell is horrible. Because it’s unforgiven sin that takes us there.…

My Brother’s Keeper, Part 2

Luke 17:3-4 Well, we’re in Luke 17, and we’re continuing a series called My Brother’s Keeper, and we are looking at Luke 17:1-10, Luke 17:1-10. Today, we’re just going to get through the first four verses. Last week we learned that we need to be our brother’s keeper, and this week we’re going to learn how to be our brother’s keeper. So this is, this is really some practical, practical teaching from our Lord today. And so today is going…

My Brother’s Keeper, Part 1

Luke 17:1-2 It’s been a while since we’ve been in the Gospel of Luke, and I think it would be a good idea to take a few minutes just to orient ourselves with where we are in this blessed narrative. We are in the third major section of Luke’s Gospel. Three major sections that we’ve gone through so far. This is the third.

The Rich Man and Lazarus, Part 2

The parable, as we’ve seen, provides a warning. It’s a warning about future judgment, the certainty of future judgment. And the occasion for the parable, as we’ve been seeing, is the response of the Pharisees to…

The Rich Man and Lazarus, Part 1

Luke 16:19-23 Today we come to the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, so I want you to open your Bibles to Luke chapter 16, Luke 16. While you’re turning there, just to sort of set this up, I’d like to read from what the Apostle Paul says at the end of 2 Corinthians chapter 4, so you turn to Luke 16, and I’ll read from 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 where Paul says this, “So we do not lose heart.…

The Doctrine of Hell and Its Fruits

Luke 16:19-31 We have the joy, the privilege of returning to the Gospel of Luke once again. I have missed it for sure, and I trust that you have, too. So turn in your Bibles to Luke 16 and the parable of the rich man and Lazarus. It was a really unique parable among all of Jesus’ parables.It’s one of Jesus’ longest. It’s the most story-like of all his parables. It’s full of rich and vivid detail. And it’s because…
