The Gospel of Luke Chapter 7

The Gospel of Luke Chapter 7 video audio sermon notes. We ministered six messages from this chapter of Luke. Man Who Amazed Jesus video audio notes (Luke 7:1-10), Power of Compassion Raising Widow’s Son video audio notes (Luke 7:11-17), Are You God Messiah or Not video audio Luke 7:18-20, Greater than John video audio (Luke 7:21-28), Doubting Generation video audio notes (Luke 7:29-35), and Alabaster Jar of Love video audio notes (Luke 7:36-50). The one I seem to remember the most is Are You God’s Messiah or Not? It’s about John the Baptist who once declared Jesus the one then came to a place where John was no longer sure. What was most interesting to me was the answer Jesus gave those John sent to ask.

Man Who Amazed Jesus video audio notes (Luke 7:1-10)

This is the only person the scriptures say amazed Jesus in a positive way. People amazed Jesus in a negative way with their unbelief or lack of faith. We know Jesus constantly amazed people with his teaching and, of course, with miracles. Jesus is God and should be amazing, but this is the only time someone amazed Jesus positively. I have to ask myself, would I amaze Jesus positively?

Power of Compassion Raising Widow’s Son video audio notes (Luke 7:11-17)

Let’s say it another way. Compassion moves Jesus. There is a power in compassion like nothing else. His gut aches when you or I have a difficult, emotionally wrecking time. When people are miserable, our God is miserable. The God of the universe hurts when I hurt. Compassion moves the hand of God.

Are You God Messiah or Not video audio Luke 7:18-20

Are you the coming one or not? This is too serious. I’ve got to know not only for me but for all. Are you him? John the Baptist was doubting big time. Here’s our lesson for today. Have you ever doubted? Sure. Question: Is the presence of doubt the absence of faith? No. Faith is the willingness to believe beyond and in spite of, all doubts. We all doubt. Faith believes anyway.

Greater than John video audio (Luke 7:21-28)

How many people were born of women? Daaaa… Everyone, innumerable people, but no mother had ever birthed a child greater than John according to the Scriptures. In greatness, I would think of Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, Solomon, Isaiah, Daniel, on and on. I’m not certain John the Baptist would come to my mind. However, Jesus said to list them all. At the top of the list of greatness is John the Baptist.

Doubting Generation video audio notes (Luke 7:29-35)

What happens when a generation doubts Jesus is God? What happens when a nation’s leaders doubt? I want each of us to ask, “Where are our generation and our nation’s leaders concerning Jesus? It makes a huge difference not only what our spiritual leaders believe, but also what our national leaders believe. Together they determine where our generation and the future generations go.

Alabaster Jar of Love video audio notes (Luke 7:36-50)

The woman brought an alabaster jar of perfume. Perfume would be a tool of her trade not only for allurement but also as a body deodorizer. Alabaster is a stone. To make a jar the stone was hewn out. The perfume was poured in and sealed with a slim ceramic neck that needed to be broken to access the expensive imported perfume. It’s a picture of our heart. Inside every hard stony heart God’s imported and placed an amazingly expensive perfume called love. It’s an allurement attracting people to us and attracting people to God. It’s a cleansing deodorizer for our souls. Love covers a multitude of sins.
