How to Be an Excellent Disciple: Fidelity

Luke 6:46-49 J.C. Ryle wrote, “It has been said with much truth that no sermon should conclude without some personal application to the consciences of the listeners.”  That’s what we’ve been getting from Jesus week by week.  What Ryle continues by saying, he calls it a “solemn and heart-searching conclusion to a most solemn discourse.”  I have certainly found that in my…

How to Be an Excellent Disciple: Humility

Luke 6:41-42 We’re coming to the conclusion on the Sermon on the Mount. And we’re actually in a little series here at the end of this Sermon on the Mount, identifying principles that lead us to excellence in discipleship.  Jesus, as we’ve been saying, he gives us here four principles of discipleship in this final section, Luke 6:39-49.  It starts with the…

How to Be an Excellent Disciple: Authority

Luke 6:39-40 We’re looking at Luke 6 verses 39 and running to the end of the chapter.  This is the final section of Luke’s record,  record of the Sermon on the Mount.  I wanted to, while you’re turning there just wanted to thank Lee Barton for opening the Word for us last week.  Such an insightful, thought-provoking exposition of Psalm 2.  In…

Luke 6:39-49 We’re going to be looking at the final section of that sermon that starts in Luke 6:39 and runs all the way to the end of the chapter.  This is the third major section of the Sermon on the Mount.  In the first section, which ran from verses 20-26, Jesus identified his true disciples as the poor, the weeping, the…

Love with Compassion

Luke 6:36-38 Turn your Bibles to Luke chapter 6. And we’re going to start this morning, by reading the main body of the sermon,  because as we transition next week, we’re going to go into another section of that Sermon on the Mount. So we want to hear the final section of this main body of the sermon, uh, read in its…

Theology of Mercy

Luke 6:36 Luke 6:36, which says, “Be merciful, even as your Father is merciful.” “Be merciful, as your Father is merciful.” And again we see, just by way of introduction as we get started, it’s the character of God that sets the standard for our character. And we need to understand it’s not just for our behavior, as important as our outward…

What Makes Us Truly, Gloriously Different

Luke 6:32-35 Turn in your Bibles, if you haven’t already, to Luke 6:32. Luke 6:32. We’re gonna be looking this morning at some extremely penetrating and searching words from our Lord Jesus Christ, here in the Sermon on the Mount. Luke 6:32-35. Jesus says, “If you love those who love you, what benefit is that to you? For even sinners love those…

The Golden Rule

Luke 6:31 “Do unto others as you would have others do unto you.” You probably were taught that by your mother when you were growing up by a very, very wide margin, the best known of Jesus sayings, in any of his teachings. “Do unto others as you would have others do unto you.”  You will find the golden rule in both…

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…
