Luke 6:14 Simon was a Galilean fisherman. He was actually the owner of a small fishing business that he operated on the Sea of Galilee, along with his brother Andrew, two of his friends, the two sons of Zebedee, James and John. Simon was not, not a man who was who had been considered in his day an educated man, though he…

Luke 6:14 So this is sort of a character study, kind of a meditative study on Peter, and we’ll cover some of the other Apostles as well, not in as much detail as we will Peter, but definitely take some time on Peter. I’d like to introduce our study by starting with a monumental moment in Peter’s life and to look at…
Luke 6:14-16 Starting there in Luke 6:14, “Simon, whom he named Peter, and Andrew his brother, and James and John, and Philip and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon who was called the Zealot, and Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.” We’ve spent time over the past two weeks really…
Luke 6:12-16 We talked about, last week, how Jesus labored through the previous night in prayer, having sensed the direction of divine providence. That God intended to pour a new foundation, for a new temple, for the people of God. This temple was not to be constructed with stone and mortar. It’s not to be layered with silver and gold on the…
Luke 6:6-11 We’ve been reading about Jesus. He and his disciples have been shadowed by the Jewish leadership. All the while, he’s demonstrating his power, his strength, his might, his healing, his concern for people, his mercy. Jesus’ ministry has attracted the attention of the religious authorities in Jerusalem. The scribes and the Pharisees, they went out from Jerusalem and Judea to…
Luke 6:1-5 As we have been moving through Jesus’ Galilean ministry, if you remember, Jesus’ Galilean ministry started in chapter 4, verse 14, and goes all the way through chapter 9, verse 50. But even in these early chapters, we have been seeing an increase of opposition from the Jewish leadership. As Jesus exercises his Messianic prerogatives, as he executes his Father’s…
Luke 5:33-39 Levi’s banquet was attended by all kinds of tax collectors and what Luke calls “others,” and the scribes call them “sinners.” Jesus attended all that, and he stood up as well to defend his disciples in the face of religious critics. I love that section of Scripture because it shows how Jesus is the friend of sinners. And that brings…
Luke 5:17-20 Here in Luke 5, join me in verse 17 and follow along as I read the account. On one of those days, as he [as Jesus] 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…
Luke 5:14-16 Let’s begin by reading the passage, which we usually do. Look at Luke Chapter 5, verse 12, “While he,” while Jesus, “was in one of the cities, there came a man full of leprosy. And when he saw Jesus, he fell on his face and begged him, ‘Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.’ And Jesus stretched out…
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…
