For the Sake of the Call

For the Sake of the Call

Feb 26, 2012

  In Luke 6:12-26, ,we learn about the call of the apostles followed by Luke’s version of the famous Beatitudes. In this section of Scripture, we see the diversity and the humility of those called to serve Jesus, the training regiment that Jesus gave them, and finally, their charge, their call to service. With the exception of Judas Iscariot, these...

The Lord of the Sabbath

The Lord of the Sabbath

Feb 19, 2012

  In our text today, Luke 6:1-11, we find two more conflicts with the Pharisees, this time over what is lawful to do on the Sabbath. And, like in Jesus’ day, the issues of the Sabbath are still conflicting, they oftentimes end in confrontation. Many can be very Pharisaical in their view of the Lord’s Day, adding extra-biblical constraints and...

Feasting Because of Jesus

Feasting Because of Jesus

Feb 5, 2012

  One of the great challenges that God sets before us is the call to be joyful. Expressions of joy can easily elude the Christian, especially when we try to hold on to the darkness of our sin or when we trust in our own exrta-biblical rules and regulations. In such times, we may trust in our self-righteousness, but this will never give us fullness of joy....

Christianity: Believe It, Live It

Christianity: Believe It, Live It

Jan 22, 2012

  As we come into chapter 5 of the Gospel of Luke, we come to meet a man named Simon Peter. Headstrong, confident, capable – and also impetuous. He is a man who knows Jesus, who has seen Jesus help others. But he doesn’t see his need for the Savior, that is, until Jesus shows him the incredible power of God. When that happens, everything changes...

Power and Authority

Power and Authority

Jan 15, 2012

  What a contrast a week makes! Last week, we noted the reaction of the Nazarenes to the preaching of Jesus. Theirs was hostility and anger. This week, we see how Jesus goes to Capernaum and preaches. The response of the citizens on this seaside town is completely different. They are amazed! They are astounded! And they are excited about the ministry of...

The Confrontational Gospel

The Confrontational Gospel

Jan 8, 2012

    This week, Jesus comes home. After successfully defeating Satan in the wilderness temptation, Jesus entered into his Galilean ministry, going from town to town, teaching, preaching, healing the sick, and bringing deliverance to the oppressed. And news of what God was doing through Him had come back to the small village of Nazareth. It is likely...

Defeating the Deceiver

Defeating the Deceiver

Jan 1, 2012

  In what may seem an amazing turn of events, Jesus goes from the waters of baptism directly into mortal combat with Satan himself and is tempted for 40 long days. Satan’s goal is to get Jesus to fall. If he could do this, the whole mission of redemption would be foiled. But Jesus defeats the enemy of our souls, not based on being God, but rather He...
