How Can the Christ Be David’s Son?

Luke 20:41:44 Now that Jesus has shut down the questions of the Sadducees and the Pharisees, Jesus has a question of His own for these. If the promised Messiah is the Son of David, then how can David call this Messiah his Lord? Jesus points to the book of Psalms as the authoritative word of God from which this question comes.

In The Resurrection

Luke 20:27-40 Seeking to entrap Jesus and display Jesus as a teacher who couldn’t answer the tough question, the Sadducees decide its their turn to show their superiority over Jesus.

Welcoming the King

Luke 19:28-44 We read in today’s passage of Jesus entering Jerusalem just a few days before the cross. The crowds are excited, the religious establishment is angry and Jesus speaks about what is to come.

The Seeker and Savior of Sinners

Luke 19:1-10 Jesus enters Jericho to meet a man God has planned for a long time to save. Jesus is the seeker, and He finds all He goes looking for and saves each and every one of them. He has to be, or none would ever be saved.
