Love Your Enemies, Part 2

Luke 6:29-30 There in Luke 6.  And we’ll be starting verse 27.  We were introduced last time to Jesus’ command, “Love your enemies,” and we tried to think carefully about what love really is.  And then how to practice that love toward others and our enemies in particular.  Today, we’re going to move ahead.  We’re going to consider some of these implications as Jesus clarifies his meaning with certain instances of enemy-like behavior.  What does it mean to love our…

The Full Authority of the Son of Man

Luke 5:21-26 We want to refresh our memories of the context here by reading that portion. So follow along as I read what we covered last week in Luke chapter 5 starting in verse 17. “On one of those days, as he was teaching, Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there, who had come from every village of Galilee and Judea and from Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was with him to heal. And behold, some…
