Love Your Enemies, Part 1

Luke 6:27-28 We’re gonna get into Luke 6:27 this morning. Last Sunday as you know, we got a broad overview of the entire sermon. But today we want to drill down into the details. Starting with Jesus’ opening imperative, in verse 27, love your enemies, love your enemies. This is about practicing the full extent of divine love. This is the way…

Becoming Disciples of Divine Love

Luke 6:27-49   Luke 6:27.  We are continuing our study of Luke and his unique and powerful record of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount.  We have noted before that this sermon, the Sermon on the Mount, may be Jesus’ most famous sermon.  His most well-known sermon.  It contains the Beatitudes, which we’ve already studied and come through.  It also contains like well-known…

A Sober Warning to the Worldly-Contented

Luke 6:24-26 You can turn in your Bibles to Luke 6:20 as we take a look this morning at the four woes.  This is our four corresponding woes to the four beatitudes he gave in, we’ll look at that whole section, Luke 6:20 to 26.  Interestingly, this is how Jesus finishes his introduction to his sermon with four woes, which really you…

Ten Reasons to Rejoice When Persecuted

Luke 6:22-23 We are wrapping up our study of just the beatitudes.  As we go through our exposition of the gospel of Luke, the beatitudes here in Luke’s gospel, Luke 6:20-23, is really the introduction of the entire Sermon on the Mount.  And today we’re going to continue what we began last time, a couple of weeks ago, in Luke 6:22-23, “blessed…

Blessed Are the Despised

Luke 6:22-23 We are studying the beatitudes, which is the introduction to Jesus’ most well-known sermon.  The, this introduction to the sermon, I think, it my mind anyway, it’s been nothing short of revolutionary.  Not in the political sense, not in any social, economical, or political statement.  Any of that would be too shallow for this.  Jesus, this is revolutionary in the…

Blessed Are the Weeping

Luke 6:21 “Luke 6:21: Blessed are you who weep now for you shall laugh.”  Want to begin though, as we have been doing, by reading the whole section, the beatitudes in Luke’s gospel, “Luke 6:20-26.”  And, I think probably by now you ought to have these beatitudes memorized, because we keep reading it week after week.  And I, personally, never get tired…

Blessed Are the Hungry

Luke 6:21 Luke Chapter 6.  Today, we’re looking at the second beatitude in Luke’s account of the Sermon on the Mount.  We spent, as you know, the last two weeks on that first beatitude, “Blessed are you who are poor, you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.”  And that really is the thesis verse for the beatitudes and…

Joy in the Wealth of Poverty

Luke 6:20 This morning, we’re really continuing a message we began last week.  We want to understand more fully, more completely what Jesus meant by what he said and implications for us.  It’s been 12 years since sociologist Christian Smith published his book called “Soul Searching: The Religious and Spiritual Lives of American Teenagers.”  The book came out in, back in 2005,…

Blessed Are the Poor

Luke 6:20 We are back in the Sermon on the Mount this morning in Luke’s account, so go ahead and turn there to Luke 6:20. We’re going to read that introductory portion again.  As we’ve said, the Sermon on the Mount is the most widely known of all Jesus’ teachings.  A very profound teaching, very searching, provoking in our hearts.  Because of…

How to Hear the Sermon on the Mount

Luke 6:20-49 I’d like to invite you to turn in your Bibles to the sixth chapter of Luke’s Gospel, Luke 6:20, Luke 6:20.  Of all that Jesus said, whether it’s the whole sermon or portions of the sermon, the Sermon on the Mount is very likely the most commonly misinterpreted portion of Jesus’ teaching.  When people get Jesus wrong on this sermon,…
