Luke 5:12-13 There’s such kindness and compassion and tenderness that this man, Jesus Christ, has toward the least of these. And I include myself as one of those. We’re going to get, today, yet another striking picture of that compassion as we see, once again how his mercy is directed by divine purpose and by concern, loving concern. If you were here…

Luke 5:1-11 In chapter 4, Luke showed us how, early in Jesus’ ministry, there were attempts to oppose and distract Jesus from his mission. The devil tried to tempt him, the people of Nazareth tried to kill him, the people of Capernaum, they tried to keep him all to themselves. But Jesus resisted temptation, he escaped from harm, he stayed focused on…
Luke 4:42-44 Jesus healing ministry was unprecedented, his power unprecedented—no one before him, no one since him has ever, ever healed like this man healed. And if you see in Luke’s gospel, chapter 4, verse 38, it says that Jesus entered Simon’s house first after the time in the synagogue on the Sabbath, and it says there that Simon’s mother-in-law was ill…
Luke 4:38-41 We’re going to begin this morning by reading the text starting in Luke 4:31 all the way to the end of the chapter: And Jesus went down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and he was teaching them on the Sabbath, and they were astonished at his teaching, for his word possessed authority. And in the synagogue there was a…
Luke 4:31-37 As we see, this is typical ministry for Jesus. But what was typical for him—what was normal and routine for his life and ministry—was far from ordinary. He is nothing short of extraordinary, as every page of Scripture reveals. But we’re going to see that all the more as we read this text. Look at verse 31 there—we’ll start…
Luke 4:22-30 You’ll notice there, if you’re in Luke 4 verses 14 to 16, the scene is set there in the synagogue. The synagogue was the place of weekly Jewish worship and instruction. And we spent some time last time describing the synagogue because really it features so often in the synoptic Gospels. The synagogue is mentioned 9 times in Matthew, 11…
Luke 4:16-22 If you’re not already there, we’ll start there in Luke chapter four, and we’ll start reading in verse 14. “And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and a report about him went out through all the surrounding country. And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified by all. And he came to Nazareth, where he had…
Luke 4:14-15 We finished a long section on Jesus’ origins, the story of where he came from and what qualifies him, that began with Luke 1:5, there after the prologue. And we ended with last week’s sermon in Luke 4:13. Luke’s Gospel, as we’ve seen, provides the most in-depth treatment of Jesus’ beginnings as Luke prepares his readers to meet the Savior…
