Teaching on Sermons (Page 36)

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…

It’s a daunting task because this teaching is so incredibly profound and searching. It’s so penetrating…

Jesus Ministers to the Masses

Luke 6:17-19 This happens to be the fourth pause that Luke has provided us, which is sort of a short summary and allows us to stop and ponder. Allows us to look at the big picture, reflect, before we wade deeply into the waters that are ahead in the Sermon on the Mount. We’ve just been through a study of the Apostles.…
