    LUKE 9-19 JESUS’ JOURNEY TO JERUSALEM.. .. AND WHAT HE TAUGHT ALONG THE WAY Bible Studies in the Luke’s Gospel Gympie Presbyterian Church Gympie Presbyterian Bible Studies – Luke 9:51-19:44 GROWTH GROUPS – TERM 1 2016 Although we call them Bible Studies our time together each week is more than just a Bible Study – we also want to pray, and share our lives together. However, it’s time spent studying the Bible that ought to shape everything else that we do. In our Bible Study time this term we will be looking at Jesus’ teaching of his disciples in Luke’s gospel chapters 9-19.1 AN INTRODUCTION TO LUKE’S GOSPEL Of the four gospels, the Gospel according to Luke gives the most detailed account of Jesus’ birth. It is the only gospel which records the parables of the Good Samaritan and of the Prodigal Son. It is also the only gospel with a sequel, with the NT book of Acts picking up where the Gospel finishes. This Gospel is attributed to Luke, a doctor who travelled with the apostle Paul and who was with Paul when he wrote what is believed to be his last letter (2 Timothy 4:11). Luke claims he has carefully investigated everything and that he writes for the benefit of Theophilus. Consider the way both Luke and Acts begin: Luke 1:1-4 (NIV) “Many have undertaken to draw up an account of the things that have been fulfilled among us, just as they were handed down to us by those who from the first were eyewitnesses and servants of the word.

  • The Meaning and Message of the Beatitudes in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) Ranko Stefanovic Andrews University
    The Meaning and Message of the Beatitudes in the Sermon On the Mount (Matthew 5-7) Ranko Stefanovic Andrews University The Sermon on the Mount recorded in Matthew 5-7 is probably one of the best known of Jesus’ teachings recorded in the Gospels. This is the first of the five discourses in Matthew that Jesus delivered on an unnamed mount that has traditionally been located on the northwest shore of the Sea of Galilee near Capernaum, which is today marked by the Church of the Beatitudes. New Testament scholarship has treated the Sermon on the Mount as a collection of short sayings spoken by the historical Jesus on different occasions, which Matthew, in this view, redactionally put into one sermon.1 A similar version of the Sermon is found in Luke 6:20-49, known as the Sermon on the Plain, which has been commonly regarded as a Lucan variant of the same discourse. 2 The position taken in this paper is, first of all, that the Matthean and Lucan versions are two different sermons with similar content delivered by Jesus on two different occasions. 3 Secondly, it seems almost certain that the two discourses are summaries of much longer ones, each with a different emphasis, spiritual and physical respectively. Whatever position one takes, it appears that the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew is not just a collection of randomly selected pieces; the discourse displays one coherent literary theme. The Sermon is introduced with the Beatitudes, which are concluded with a couplet of short metaphoric parables on salt and light.

  • “Jesus Is STILL Feeding the Crowd” Luke 9:10-17 •
    Jesus is STILL Feeding People Luke 9:10-17 When was the last time that you found yourself standing at the dead end road of life wondering how you had got there and where God was? Have you stood on the edge of possibility, looking at the vast expanse before you and feeling utterly inferior or incompetent for the task? Have you ever wished that you had more to offer? Maybe that’s how the disciples felt as evening fell on the grassy plains of Bethsaida to the East of the Sea of Galilee. The week leading up to this trip to Bethsaida had been both exhausting, triumphant and painful. Jesus had sent the disciples out in teams of two with the power and authority to preach and to heal. He had told them to go with almost nothing to their name and simply to trust that God would provide for their needs. The disciples returned triumphantly. They had experienced the first taste of what it was to be apostles, those sent out with the express purpose of proclaiming the coming of the kingdom of God. And now Jesus takes them to a deserted place to recharge. But the retreat is cut short when a huge crowd shows up, over 5000. And this sets the stage for the only miracle that is recorded in all four Gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Anyone know what it is? That’s right, the feeding of the 5,000. This should give us a clue as to how very important this miracle is to the Lord.

  • No More Excuses! Luke 9:57-62 Luke: Finding Jesus Sermon 45 Some Things You Just Can't Make Up. Years Ago When I Was A
    No More Excuses! Luke 9:57-62 Luke: Finding Jesus Sermon 45 Some things you just can’t make up. Years ago when I was at a church in the Detroit area, my adopted Dad, Dave Cummins was the pastor. There was a young man who wasn’t quite right in the head. One of those individuals who was a few keys short of a keyboard. His name was Robert. Robert had missed quite a bit of church and so Dad Cummins asked him where he’d been…why Robert had missed so much church? It was one of the best excuses I’ve heard from a man for missing church. Robert said that he’d been gone because he’d had minor surgery – he told Dad and everyone else that he had missed because he had recently had a hysterectomy. I’ve heard a lot of excuses for missing church, but that was without question the most unique one a man has ever given. Someone defined an excuse as “the skin of a reason stuffed with a lie.” In this last section of Luke 9, we’re introduced to three men considering following Jesus but they have excuses. If we’re going to follow Jesus, there are No More Excuses. Turn in your Bible to Luke 9:57-62 (p. 868). This passage is very important because it shows that being a believer is not some fly-by-night affair. Discipleship requires that Jesus and His Kingdom be the first priority in one’s life. The New Testament knows nothing of the easy believism of contemporary evangelicalism.

  • The Beatitudes and Woes of Jesus Christ for the Slow
    THE BEATITUDES AND WOES OF JESUS CHRIST FOR THE SLOW SAVOURING OF SERIOUS DISCIPLES by Father Joseph R. Jacobson To the Chinese Christians of our own time who along with survivors of the gulag and the jihad are giving the whole Church a fresh vision of what it means to be called “disciples of Jesus” INTRODUCTORY COMMENTS The Beatitudes and Woes of Jesus Christ are stark. Much of our teaching and preaching based on them is not. Jesus sets them out as ground rules for His disciples. He places them at the very beginning of His special instructions to them, whereas entire theological systems have treated them as an afterthought and relegated them to the end. The problem is that in Jesus’ instructions the Beatitudes are descriptive, not prescriptive. That is, they tell us what discipleship is, not what it ought to be. They spell out the everyday norms of discipleship, not its far off ideals, the bottom line, not the distant goal. This makes us most uncomfortable because, fitting us so poorly they call into question our very right to claim to be disciples of Jesus at all. There can be no question that they are addressed specifically to Jesus’ disciples, both the Beatitudes and the Woes. Matthew makes that plain in his way (Matthew 5:1-2) and Luke makes it plain in his way (Luke 6:20). The fact that Jesus singles them out from the crowds which are all around them, pressing in on them with their own expectations and demands, simply underscores the urgency Jesus felt to clarify what He was expecting of them by way of sheer contrast.

  • Peter's Confession of Christ
    Luke 9:18-27 June 23, 2019 Open with Prayer HOOK: Christianity contains key doctrines, one of which is built on an accurate answer to “Who is Jesus?” I want you to imagine Jesus coming to our class this morning and asking us “When people hear the name ‘Jesus,’ who do they say I am? How would you answer Him? Perhaps you have met others who subscribe to a different faith system who have an interesting answer to that question! What would you tell Him? Transition: Jesus is very interested in people understanding WHO HE IS! Let’s read our text and see what kind of answers His disciples were offering – before He points the same question to them! Let’s begin reading Luke 9:18-27. BOOK: Peter’s Confession of Christ 18 Once when Jesus was praying in private and his disciples were with him, he asked them, “Who do the crowds say I am?” 19 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, that one of the prophets of long ago has come back to life.” 20 “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?” Peter answered, “The Christ of God.” 21 Jesus strictly warned them not to tell this to anyone. 22 And he said, “The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests and teachers of the law, and he must be killed and on the third day be raised to life.” 23 Then he said to them all: “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.

  • Luke 9:57-62 the Importance of Self Denial Main Idea: Jesus Requires
    Luke 9:57-62 The Importance of Self Denial Main Idea: Jesus requires 100% commitment and loyalty from his disciples which will involve personal sacrifice. Following from the last time when we looked at the disciples wrong motives for ministry. Jesus continues to talk about the cost of discipleship. In this section, three people want to become Jesus’ disciples but do not understand the cost involved. Discipleship was an important theme for Jesus as this has already been covered (Luke 9:23-27). v57-58 This man is a teacher of the law (Matthew 8:19). These teachers held a prestigious place within Jewish society. Perhaps, he was looking for a similar amount of prestige and honor by following Jesus. Jesus does not deny the man, but what he does say is that there will be a cost to following him. He is allowing the man to weigh up what is involved. He is telling him that there will be no prestige or honor for those who truly follow Jesus. “28 Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won’t you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it?…33 In the same way, those of you who do not give up everything you have cannot be my disciples.” Luke 14:28 & 33 What is the cost? “By using the title "Son of Man," Jesus heightened the irony of His sufferings. If the Son of Man experienced these things, how much more would His disciples.” Constable, Notes on Luke Jesus is pointing out that for a disciple, there may not be security.

  • Entertaining Angels: Hospitality in Luke and Acts by Andrew Arter B U R Y
    20 Copyright © 2007 Center for Christian Ethics at Baylor University Entertaining Angels: Hospitality in Luke and Acts BY ANDREW ARTER B URY In Luke’s writings the ancient practice of hospitality—the custom of welcoming travelers or strangers into one’s home and establishing relationships with them—becomes the prism through which Jesus’ disciples can view one another and others as valuable children of God. oday we think of hospitality as the custom of feeding family, friends, and neighbors in our homes or hosting these people for a night or Ttwo. The writers of the New Testament, however, were working with a significantly different definition of hospitality or xenia. The ancient custom of hospitality revolved around the practice of welcoming strangers or trav- elers into one’s home while promising to provide them with provisions and protection.1 Hospitality in the first century could be a very risky venture, just as tak- ing strangers into one’s home is a dangerous decision in many corners of the world today. Nevertheless, in the books of Luke and Acts we see an appeal for Jesus’ disciples to practice hospitality in their lives and ministries. ANCIENT HOSPIT A LITY Strangers who were traveling in a new region did not always find a hos- pitable reception in antiquity. For starters, they were easy prey for thieves and robbers who trolled the roadways in sparsely populated areas. Further- more, many townspeople saw mysterious strangers as threats and therefore sought to shun, abuse, or eliminate these outsiders before they could harm the community. Recall, for instance, how the men of Sodom (Genesis 19:1- 11) and the men of Gibeah (Judges 19:14-26) wanted to take advantage of strangers and selfishly abuse them in violent ways.
