How to Hear the Sermon on the Mount

Luke 6:20-49      I invite you to turn in your bibles to the sixth chapter of Lukes’ Gospel, Luke 6:20. Luke 6:20. Of all the 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, they tend to through that misunderstanding they tend to misinterpret the entire meaning of his life and ministry as…

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. We took a few weeks to get a more detailed look at the men God ordained and the…

The Twelve: The Triumph of Divine Justice

Luke 6:16-19 The last of the Apostles whom we covered just last week was Judas Iscariot. Judas Iscariot, many of you know, is the one who betrayed Jesus Christ.

I want you to notice in Luke Chapter 6, verse 12, “In these days,” Jesus, “went up to the mountain to pray, all night he continued in prayer to God. When day came, he…

The Twelve: Lessons from the Lesser Knowns

Luke 6:12-16  Today, we’re going to talk about some of the lesser-known Apostles. I’m not sure if you’re aware, but we actually studied our study of the Apostles in the apostolic ministry back in January, end of January. Andwe just wanted, as we came in our study of Luke, we wanted to come to this portion here and pay special attention to this list of names that the Lord chose to be his Apostles because as we’ve pointed out, these…

The Twelve: The Sons of Thunder

Luke 6:12-16 Today we’re looking at the two sons of Zebedee, James and John. Those two brothers, James and John, they belong to that first group of Apostles, that, that inner circle, and that included two other brothers, Simon and Andrew. And as you might imagine, two sets of brothers knowing each other, knowing each other in Galilee and Capernaum, in fishing industry together, they were a pretty tight group. These three of these four, they were selected by Christ…
