  2. Lesson 16 Matthew 13:1-53 Mark 4:1-32 Luke 8:4-18

  3. Feast of Simon the PhariseeLuke 7:36-50 review • A woman • From the city • Who was a sinner • Washed Jesus’ feet with her tears • Wiped them with her hair • Kissed His feet anointing them with oil

  4. Feast of Simon the PhariseeLuke 7:36-50 review • His Pharisee host reacted • Does He not realize who is touching Him? • Furthermore, does He not care that she touches Him (is in His presence)? • He replied respectfully to Jesus • Master (Rabbi), say on…

  5. Parable of Two DebtorsLuke 7:36-50 review • One owed much • One owed little • Both were freely forgiven • Which would loved more? • Which would love more in return? • The woman’s sins, which were many, were forgiven and she had loved much • What about him who loves little? Did the Pharisee have need of forgivness?

  6. Parable of Two DebtorsLuke 7:36-50 review • To whom little is forgiven. A man's love to God will be in proportion to the obligation he feels to Him for forgiveness. God is to be loved for His perfections, apart from what He has done for us. But still it is proper that our love should be increased by a consideration of His goodness; and they who feel--as Christians do--that they are the chief of sinners, will feel under infinite obligation to love God and their Redeemer, and that no expression of attachment to Him can be beyond what is due.Barnes 1 John 4:19 We love Him because He first loved us.

  11. The “Unpardonable Sin”Matthew 12:31-32; Mark 3:28-30 review • Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit • They accused Jesus of getting His miraculous power from Satan • The power actually came from God (and Jesus in His divine nature) • They were sinning against the (Holy) Spirit by attributing to Satan that which belonged to Deity because of their unbelief

  12. The “Unpardonable Sin”Matthew 12:31-32; Mark 3:28-30 review • …the unpardonable sin, as some term it, is neither less nor more than ascribing the miracles Christ wrought, by the power of God, to the spirit of the devil Adam Clark • How can one today commit this sin? • By doing as they did; by totally rejecting Christ; by living in a state of unbelief • In such a state one cannot be forgiven

  13. Proverbs 4:23 Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life.

  17. Scribes and Pharisees Ask For a SignMatthew 12:38-45 review • Revelation 2:4-5 "Nevertheless I have this against you, that you have left your first love. "Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent and do the first works, or else I will come to you quickly and remove your lampstand from its place--unless you repent.

  18. Scribes and Pharisees Ask For a SignMatthew 12:38-45 review • The design and scope of this parable is to show that the Pharisees, by rejecting the gospel and refusing to believe in Christ, were in a seven-fold worse condition than if the gospel had never been preached to them, and a Saviour had never come among them…

  19. Scribes and Pharisees Ask For a SignMatthew 12:38-45 review • Satan, by the preaching of the gospel may seem to go out of persons, and they become sober and civilized; yet may he return to his old habitation, and the last end of that man may be worse than the beginning. William Burkitt's Notes on the New Testament

Is He including us in that statement?
