Sermon Series: Lessons in Luke

Sunday 16th February 2025

From Psalm 1:
Oh, the joy of those who do not rely only on human wisdom,
Those who do not scoff at Godly insight. 
And the delight of following the ways of God
Meditating on his laws and thinking about his ways
They will be like trees along a riverbank
bearing luscious fruit each season without fail.
Knowing the blessing of God upon their lives
 
Text: Luke 6: 17-26
Jesus had just done an ‘all-nighter’ – he had climbed to a mountain top and spent the night in prayer. He then goes on to give the “Sermon on the Plain” – a confronting text for the ‘well to do’, which speaks of 2 groups, the poor and the rich, one is blessed and the other cursed! Blessed are the poor and woe to the rich!
