We learned last week thatthe word strive, agonizomai, it came…

Strive to Enter the Kingdom

Luke 13:22-24 As we reengage our minds in the study of Luke’s Gospel, I’d just invite you to turn back again to that, beloved book, and you can turn to the middle of Luke 13, Luke chapter 13. We are entering into a new section in this place, Luke 13:22, a new section in, in this Gospel. It’s got a clear theme and it starts in Luke 13:22 and continues on through Chapter 16. It’s a section here of strong…

How His Kingdom Comes

Luke 13:18-21 If you could turn in your Bibles to Luke, Chapter 13, we are finishing up a section today. Two brief parables from Jesus, and you’ll find them in Luke 13:18 to 21. Luke 13:18 to 21. Two simple parables. But once again, we find, what appears to be simple on the surface is profoundly searching and at the same time profoundly encouraging to us.  Jesus said, “Therefore,” Luke 13:18, “He said therefore, ‘What is the kingdom of God…

What the Sabbath Is For

Luke 13:14-17 Well, we are back in Luke 13 to finish what we started last week, so I’d invite you to turn there in your Bibles to Luke 13 and verse 10.

We saw that her physical malady had a spiritual source, and in this case, that source was an evil spirit,…

The Liberating Power of God

Luke 13:10-13 Take your bibles in hand if you will, and turn to Luke 13:10. Last week we finished up a long section of Jesus’ teaching, started in Luke 12:1 and went all the way to Luke 13:9. So today we’re kind of catching up with Jesus as he’s moved on from that setting and he’s moved on to another setting. We’re going to catch up with him as he teaches in a synagogue as he heals a crippled woman…

One More Mercy for the Barren Tree

Luke 13:6-9 We’re in Luke 13 this morning, but I’m going to ask you to open your Bibles to Luke 12. So we can work our way into the text that we’re going to cover. A, this morning, we’re going to begin in Luke 12:54 a section that we’ve covered. As Jesus turned from teaching his disciples, he turned from his disciples to address the crowds. And it says in Luke 12:54, “He also said to the crowds, ‘When you…

Repent or Perish

It’s a new chapter, but it is a continuation in the first part of this chapter. Of the same theme that we looked at last week. And that theme is that judgment is coming, so repent and repent now. In today’s text, Jesus is pressing…

Settle Out of Court

Luke 12:54-59 It’s good to be back to this text in Luke chapter 12. I’m so glad to be back here. I, I learn so much every single week from the Lord Jesus Christ and how he deals with people, how he deals with situations. And this text is, is no different. He’s actually going to be addressing the crowds today, which is, we’ve been, we’ve been going through the text and seeing him really teaching and training the disciples,…

Christ Came to Divide

Luke 12:51-53 I’d like to invite all of you to turn in your bibles to Luke Chapter 12.  And we’re going to continue what we started last week so Luke 12:49 and following.  As we saw last week Jesus sees the world divided into basic groups.  His, his work as Messiah acknowledges two basic groups.  There are those who will go through the fire of his judgment, and then there are those who are included in his baptism.  Who avoid…

Christ Came to Start a Fire

Luke 12:49-50 Luke 12:49.  It is a, it is a portion of Scripture that is unique to Luke’s gospel, you’re not going to find this section in any of the other gospels, these two verses anyway we’ll cover today.  But this portion also provides very unique and privileged insight into the thinking of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.    There in Luke 12:49-53. From the Prince of Peace Himself, we hear what sounds more like a call to arms.  More…
