Why We Need Theology

Selected Scriptures We’re going to be trying to hit this issue of theology from a lot of different angles. So naturally, this leads into me, tonight,kicking off this study, giving you some reasons why we’re going to pursue a course of instruction in the doctrines of Scripture and in the theology of Scripture. And I want to start out by giving you a bit of a justification tonight of why we’re going to study theology. Several reasons why we study…

What the Sabbath Is For

Luke 13:14-17 Well, we are back in Luke 13 to finish what we started last week, so I’d invite you to turn there in your Bibles to Luke 13 and verse 10. Last week we covered the section of Jesus healing a woman, and we saw that she had been in a severe state of being crippled for 18 years. We saw that her physical malady had a spiritual source, and in this case, that source was an evil spirit,…

The Liberating Power of God

Luke 13:10-13 Take your bibles in hand if you will, and turn to Luke 13:10. Last week we finished up a long section of Jesus’ teaching, started in Luke 12:1 and went all the way to Luke 13:9.

And it says in Luke 12:54, “He also said to the crowds, ‘When you…

Repent or Perish

Luke 13:1-3 Well, as we take our Bibles in hand today, we have the joy of turning to a new chapter in Luke’s Gospel, Luke Chapter 13. So, take your Bibles and turn there, please. It’s a new chapter, but it is a continuation in the first part of this chapter. Of the same theme that we looked at last week. And that theme is that judgment is coming, so repent and repent now. In today’s text, Jesus is pressing…

Settle Out of Court

Luke 12:54-59 It’s good to be back to this text in Luke chapter 12. I’m so glad to be back here. I, I learn so much every single week from the Lord Jesus Christ and how he deals with people, how he deals with situations. And this text is, is no different. He’s actually going to be addressing the crowds today, which is, we’ve been, we’ve been going through the text and seeing him really teaching and training the disciples,…
