  1. Luke 6:20-49 A sermon that doesn’t cater to the crowd

  2. Blessings and Woes • V. 20-22 Blessed means Happy • Jesus reverses the norm • V. 24-26 – Woe is an expression of grief (Sad) • V. 23 – Do you want your reward on earth now or in the age to come? Your Choice!

  3. Love Your Enemies V. 27-28 - The Love that Jesus COMMANDShere is a non-selective love based on the very nature of God Himself. • Do you know when Jesus eventually demonstrates this kind of love for enemies? (He practiced what he preached.) V. 29-30 – Retaliation or protection of material possessions is less important than loving humans. V. 31 – Golden Rule = “Think of the kindness you wish others would show you; do the same for them.” –The Voice

  4. Love Your Enemies V. 32-35 – Natural Love = What you do anyway without God. Human Nature. Love people because they love you. VS. God’s Love = Loving people who may not love you back. V. 36 – Compare this to Matthew 5:48, “be merciful” instead of “be perfect.”

  5. Judging Others V.37-38 – Judge Not – Maybe referring to the “religious” people of the day who were uncharitable to the sinners. Condemn Not – Don’t try and be God Forgive – Receiving God’s forgiveness is dependent upon a forgiving spirit towards others.

  6. Definition of a Disciple V. 39 – If you ignore what Jesus says, its like the blind leading the blind. V. 40 – To be a Disciple of Jesus is to be like Jesus! *This is our theme verse for entire book of Luke. Luke is showing us through the book how to become a disciple of Jesus and what that looks like.

  7. Don’t be Hypocritical V. 41-42 – This shows Jesus’ humor. The bizarre nature of this picture would force thought and reflection, which is what he intended.

  8. A Test of Goodness V. 42-45 – It is all about what is in your heart!

  9. “Do What I say” V. 46-29 – House on the Rock = Listen to Jesus’ words and puts them into his or her everyday life. House on the Sand = Listens to Jesus’ words but does not put them into practice. No foundation
