Sore Abuse and Scorn

Luke 22:63-65 Before we come to Lord’s table, I would like us to perhaps maybe deepen our appreciation for the gift of Christ and for the gift of this communion with him by turning to Luke 22 once again, look at a parallel text to what we have read in Matthew 26. We have as a church been studying the passion of Christ in our study of Luke’s Gospel. And in our study of the passion, we find our place…

The Fall of Peter

Luke 22:54-62 So you can turn your Bibles to Luke 22 as we come to one of the saddest scenes in the Gospel accounts, one of the most pitiable, poignant scenes in the Passion narrative, which is the fall of Peter. And I refer to this scene as sad, pitiable because we can all sympathize with Peter, can’t we? We know that if we were put into the same situation, we’d likely fall in the same way as he. And…

The Arrest of Jesus

Luke 22:47-53 So we return to our study of Luke’s Gospel and to Jesus and his men in the Garden of Gethsemane, and today we’re coming to his arrest, which starts in Luke 22 verse 47. So you’ll want to turn there in your Bibles, Luke 22:47. Previous section, Luke 22:39-46, is Jesus preparing for the cross, and he’s really, in light of the trials that are coming upon him, he’s encouraging his disciples to do the same, to prepare.…

Lessons from the Garden

Luke 22:46 Well, we want to come back one more time to Luke 22:39-46, this passage we’ve been in for the last couple of weeks. We want to come back to it one more time so that we can learn the lessons that I think the Lord would have us learn, the lessons Luke as an author wants us to learn, the lessons that the Holy Spirit wants us to learn as well as we observe our Lord Jesus Christ.…

The Agony in the Garden, Part 2

Luke 22:42-45 Man, I love that song. Thank you so much for singing that, choosing that song for us, and thank you for singing so well. Let’s just find out how marvelous and how wonderful his love really is. Turn to Luke chapter 22. We’re returning to the Garden of Gethsemane and Jesus’ prayer in preparation for the cross. And so find your way to Luke 22 and verse 39 in your Bibles.  Luke here, in Luke 22:39 to 46,…

The Agony in the Garden, Part 1

Luke 22:39-42 Turn in your Bibles to Luke chapter 22. Luke chapter 22, we are following our Lord Jesus Christ. We’ve just been with him and his disciples in the upper room, and they are in this text that we’re in today, Luke 22:39. They’ve left the upper room and they’re heading to the Garden of Gethsemane. Today, as we enter into the Garden of Gethsemane with our Lord, we are wading into some deep, deep waters; really deeper than…

The Goodness of Good Friday

Isaiah 53 It is my joy and ah pleasure to open the word of God with all of you this evening for our Good Friday service. And tonight I wanted to speak to something that Josh already mentioned. And there’s something that I hear this time of, of year, whether it’s a meme floating around or even Christians saying it. But every year you hear the question, why do we call this day Good Friday? Why do we call Good…

Why We Follow, Part 2

Luke 9:24-27 Let’s open our Bibles to Luke 9:23. Today we hope to finish studying this what is really a challenging, challenging call to discipleship that’s been issued by Jesus Christ. Luke 9:23,that verse says, “He said to all, ‘If anyone wants to come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily, and follow me.’” And that call sounds as radical in our day as it did in his. It strikes our ears as a severe…
