Luke 19:11-27Why bother going God’s way at all? And as Christians why bother serving Christ wholeheartedly? Why not do the bare minimum and leave the hard work to the keenies? The answer is all to do with what will happen when Christ returns.
Let Your Kingdom Come
Luke 19:1-10 We might have heard of Jesus’ concern for the downtrodden, but where does his concern stop? What about those who tread down others? Listen in as we look at an encounter between Jesus and a man who’s spent his life doing just that. Is salvation possible? How about change?
Luke 18:31-43Can we see Jesus? Does Jesus want to be seen? People often say “if I can only see Jesus, then I’ll believe” but if Jesus is before your eyes, are you sure you can see him clearly?
Luke 18:15-30 If Bertrand Russell is wrong and when we die, we don’t just rot, there can be few more important questions- ‘How good is good enough?’ If I meet my maker what will he make of me? Will I be good enough? Listen in as we hear Jesus ripped up the preconceptions of a man convinced he’d be good enough.
Luke 18:9-17 Righteousness is more than just some religious buzz-word. It is the way we can have a relationship with God. So how can we get this righteousness? In Luke 18 we see an example of the wrong approach and the right approach as we meet a Pharisee and a Tax Collector.
Luke 18:1-8 The world, the flesh and the devil constantly tempt us to lose heart and give up on Christ. But this passage is an encouragement to keep persevering in prayer, to keep crying out because it won’t always be this way. Jesus is coming back and when he does he will establish his kingdom with justice.
Luke 17:20-37 A game changer is something so big, so impactful, that it changes the landscape. The return of Jesus is a game changer. It certainly will be when it happens, for all of us, but it should also be a game changer in our lives now once we grasp its significance.
