Sermons on Luke (Page 11)

At twelve years of age Jesus had incredible self-awareness. Here he confesses that he is the Son of God and is the Lord’s Christ. At the same time, we’re reminded that Jesus is human. How this fits together is ultimately beyond our understanding but it absolutely necessary for the gospel. Here is Christ Jesus revealed, our Passover Lamb! Passage: Luke 2:41-52

Pastor Tim returns to the gospel of Luke and considers two temple visits while Jesus was a child. Passage: Luke 2:21-40

Jesus is born in a revelation of the glory of God. In fact, the decree from Caesar Augustus, the singing of the angels, the word of the shepherds, all testify to the glory of God in the birth of the Savior, Jesus Christ the Lord. Passage: Luke 2:1-20

When John the Baptist is born, Zechariah is filled with the Holy Spirit and utters words of praise and worship. These words are filled with truth concerning Christ that will bring us great hope and joy. We see in these verses that salvation is much more that we often hear that it is. Passage: Luke 1:57-80

We examine the contagious joy of Elizabeth and Mary as they rejoice in the Lord and magnify his might and mercy. May their joy challenge us to have joy in God in our present circumstances. Here is a call to turn from sin which zaps our joy and turn to God in whom there is fullness of joy forevermore. Passage: Luke 1:39-56

We consider the angel’s message to Mary announcing the coming of Christ into the world. So much anticipation that we can now look back upon and rejoice for what God had done and is doing through his Son. Passage: Luke 1:26-38

We begin the account of Jesus with the foretelling of John the baptizers birth. Zechariah and Elizabeth are chosen of the Lord to bring forth this child who will prepare the way for the Christ. May God use his word to prepare our own hearts to receive Christ and be brought to him. Passage: Luke 1:5-25
