Get Your Eyes Checked
Luke 11:33-36 I want to turn us back into the Gospel of Luke and get your attention back into the text, there, and Luke Chapter 11, as Jesus brings this discourse that we’ve been looking at for some time, here, he brings this particular discourse to a close. So you can find your way to Luke 11:33. As you turn there, I’ll just make a couple of remarks by way of introduction. The scene opened back in verse 14, Luke…
The Sign of Suffering
Philippians 1:29-30
Only This
Philippians 1:27-28 It is a joy to be back in the Book of Philippians once again, even though the circumstances are not as great of a joy. But it is a joy, nonetheless.

It says, in that first line, “The God of Abraham praise who reigns enthroned above. Ancient of…
Why They Reject Christ
Luke 11:14-16 I’d ask you to turn in your Bibles, there, to Luke 11 and verse 14, Luke 11:14. That starts a new section and starting today and for the foreseeable future, we’re going to see Jesus as he faces a significant season of controversy, as he responds to what really amounts to a blasphemy.
