Luke 24:45-48 (KJV) 45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures, 46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: 47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be […]

Luke 10:33-35 (KJV) 33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him, 34 And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him […]
We are all called to be good Samaritans towards others in need. There is always somebody we can help but are you willing?
Begin to fear God and you will obtain wisdom. Depart from your sins and come unto Jesus, then understanding will come from above.
Rejoice when those that were lost are now found in Christ. Put your anger aside and forgive them as God forgave them already.
We will receive comfort in death, while in paradise. However, in heaven, there are no more tears, death, sorrow, crying, or pain.
Hell is a place of fire, torment, and pain. However, the pains in the lake of fire never cease. This is where the wicked end up.
The angels are singing when souls that were lost are found. Glory to God for every person that comes to the Lord for salvation.
Luke 24:36-40 (KJV) 36 And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. 37 But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit. 38 And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? […]
Jesus Christ is alive. And now we are called to preach the gospel in all nations. The message being that Jesus died for our sins and was resurrected the third day.
Jesus is our example of being loving and kind to everyone He came across. He even taught this concept to us when he said, “and as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
Here are three false scenarios on how to go to heaven. #1 There are many ways to heaven. #2 All people that have died can go to heaven. #3 Belief in Christ saves us, so no life change is necessary is so wrong.
Luke 6:38 (KJV) 38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
The best part about Christmas is not about presents, but to think about Jesus and to give to others. Doing this brings the greatest joy of all.
So as 700 plus or minus years past, this prophesy of John the Baptist’s birth and ministry was finally fulfilled.
Luke 2:29-32 (KJV) 29 Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word: 30 For mine eyes have seen thy salvation, 31 Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people; 32 A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.
Did you know that Luke also refers to Jesus and light in the same reference? In Luke, chapter 2, we hear this from the words of Simeon, a devout man of God, who had the opportunity to hold the baby Jesus first hand.
Luke 2:8-11 (KJV) 8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. 9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. 10 […]
It was in Bethlehem that Joseph and Mary searched for a place to stay for a night, for Mary was close to having her baby.
Luke 1:41-44 (KJV) 41 And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost: 42 And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is […]
After Elizabeth rejoiced in Mary’s son, Mary also rejoiced in him. And because she said some amazing things through the Holy Spirit, there is less I have to say but share what she said.
Luke 1:30-33 (KJV) 30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God. 31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name Jesus. 32 He shall be great, and shall be called the […]
For Mary to know in her heart that she would give birth to the Son of God must have really made her feel blessed.
Luke 1:46-49 (KJV) 46 And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, 47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. 48 For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed. 49 For he that is mighty […]
Much like Mary glorified in her Son, Jesus, oh how my soul praises the Lord, my Savior. My heart doth magnify the God of Israel and every nation.
Luke 18:13,14 (KJV) 13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner. 14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: […]
When Jesus comes into our lives and starts to work through us, it is this time to understand that it is Him doing all the work and not ourselves.
Jesus is our God and who we should be seeking in His church. This is because He is at the head of it, and not the corruption of man.
Luke 15:20-22 (KJV) 20 And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him. 21 And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against […]
