Luke, Week 8: Jesus Teaches with Authority
Jesus sets His disciples up for their coming persecution with the beatitudes and the command to love their enemies. He points out that some people call Him Lord yet don’t do what He commands. A Centurion understands what the disciples do not. This teaches the true meaning of the word Lord.
I Tell You, Not Even in Israel Have I Found Such Faith
What does this Centurion know that no one else knows?
Why Do You Call Me "Lord, Lord" and Not Do What I Tell You?
Is Jesus really your boss?
You Hypocrite, First Take the Log Out of Your Own Eye.
He said this to the disciples.
Luke, Week 7: Jesus Does Things Differently
Jesus eats with sinners, doesn’t command his disciples to fast, heals on the Sabbath, and even claims to forgive sin. Then he prays all night before choosing his disciples. What’s He up to?
Jesus, Your Disciples Don't Fast
For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:
The Pharisees Object to Jesus Eating With a Tax Collector
If they don't think He's the Messiah, why would they care?
Your Sins Are Forgiven; Take Up Your Mat and Walk
Why is no one afraid this time?
