Shepherd’s Instruction

Selected Scriptures Rather than jumping back into Lukes’ Gospel and our study of Lukes’ Gospel, we’re going to do, as I mentioned, a short series on shepherding, series on pastoral ministry. This is going to be more of a topical than an expositional series, just a three-week series. I trust it will be faithful to the exegesis of Scripture and the doctrine…

Combat Prayer

Ephesians 6:18-20  Our topic for today is prayer, and it’s not just about prayer, but about the essential role of prayer in spiritual warfare. I’m following up on last week’s sermon on the full armor of God. As I mentioned at the end of our time last week, I wanted to do a focused time on prayer this morning because if we…

Real War and How to Fight It

Ephesians 6:10-20 It’ll come to as no surprise to any of you when I say that we are living in some contentious times. Wars, battles, fights and talk of the same, it’s, it’s common, isn’t it? It’s constant in the culture. It’s like white noise. It’s become so constant: wars, battles, and fights all the time. We’ve actually got actual wars, they’re…

Desolation and Abomination

Selected Scriptures We come to a point in our study of the Olivet Discourse where it’s time for us to pause for a bit, and we want to clarify an interpretive issue here in the text. 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…

Destruction of Jerusalem, Part 1

Luke 21:20-24 Well, turn in your Bibles to Luke 21, the Olivet Discourse. As we come to what is really a very sobering prediction of judgement on the Jewish people, the destruction of Jerusalem. At the same time, in this text, as we read about a sobering prediction of judgement on the Jews, we also think about what’s going on in our…

God’s Plan for Persecution, Part 2

Luke 21:14-19 Luke 21, I have got a lot to cover this morning, so I’m going to violate all the principles of good homiletics, forego any introduction, so we can just get through the section that we started last week on persecution. I know you’ll forgive me for that violation of homiletics, because you’re Christians and you are prone to forgive. In…
