Born Again on a Cross

Luke 23:35-43 Turn in your Bibles to Luke 23, Luke 23. Today we have the very special privilege of looking at a, a text that I think is a favorite to many, especially those who know their sins, know that they are sinners in need of God’s rich mercy and without his mercy they would be condemned for all eternity into Hell. And so for people like that, who, who know what it is to be lost, to know what…

The Mercy of a Final Warning

Luke 23:26-31 Let’s open our Bibles to Luke 23. Luke 23, the record of our Lord’s crucifixion. And today we are looking at verse 26 and following, where Jesus speaks to the weeping women. And as he speaks to the weeping women, and through the weeping women to the rest of the nation of Israel, he is conveying the mercy of God to a people who are under judgment. They’re heading for disaster. This crucifixion of their Messiah does not…

Our Savior and His Salvation

The Fraudulent Case Against Jesus

Luke 23:1-5 Well, we have the privilege this morning of returning to Luke’s Gospel. And this week, hey, we turn the page to a new chapter! How about that? So open your Bibles to Luke chapter 23, Luke chapter 23. Just two chapters left before we get into Luke’s second volume, the book of Acts. I know what you’re thinking: Two chapters, that could take five years. Nope. Listen, my plan, Lord willing, is to hopefully be done by the…
