Sermons on Kingdom of God (Page 2)
Parable of the Wicked Tenants
Luke 20:9-18 Jesus tells a parable to the chief Priests, scribes, and elders of the people of Israel letting them know that He is fully aware of their plans to kill Him, and what this means for them. The parable of the wicked tenants is recorded in all three synoptic gospels.
By What Authority?
Luke 20:1-8 Jesus is confronted by the religious leadership who are seeking to destroy Him and commanded to tell by what authority He does the things He is doing? His answer leaves little wiggle room for these.
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 God Who Judges Rightly
Luke 19:11-27 Jesus tells a parable which reveals much about salvation to us.
The King is Coming
John 12:12-19 Jesus, after raising Lazarus from the dead, is followed by a massive crowd into Jerusalem for the Passover. Is this the promised king?
What Must I Do?
Luke 18:18-30 A ruler of the synagogue came to Jesus with an all important question. What must I do to inherit eternal life. In answering the question Jesus brings the man to the law. In the answer we see that if it at all rests on “our work” it only requires perfect law keeping and perfect submission to Jesus lordship. Those who oppose Lordship salvation should give a listen, because they might be surprised what Lordship salvation actually believes.
To Such Belongs the Kingdom
Luke 18:15-17 People bring their children to Jesus to have Him bless them, and Jesus uses this to continue teach on the topic of who enters the kingdom of God.
Prayer of the Elect
Luke 18:1-8 Jesus tells a parable aimed at instructing believers to pray for the second coming of the Lord.
The Kingdom: Part 2
Luke 17:20-37 Jesus teaches the Pharisees about the right now kingdom of God that is inward, then He turns to HIs disciples and teaches about the realized “not yet” kingdom that one day will come.
The Kingdom: Part 1
Luke 17:20-37 The Kingdom of God is the central theme of all the New Testament. The Jews, from reading the Old Testament scriptures knew much about the kingdom, and they had certain expectations about the coming kingdom of God, but they missed the most important aspect. Entry is only by new birth!
