Luke 3-4 (Preaching Notes)
type: item
description: The Gospel of Luke The Gospel of Luke Luk 3:1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene, Six points of reference Luke uses to pinpoint the time in secular history that marks the return of the prophetic ministry to Israel Luk 3:2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness. Seventh marker references the Jewish time frame Finally the word comes to John In the wilderness Luk 3:3 And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins; John comes to the people The baptism of repentance The remission of sins Luk 3:4 As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. The Book Psa 119:89 LAMED. For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven. The voice crying Heb 3:7 Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice, Heb 3:8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness: Heb 3:9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years. Heb 3:10 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways. Heb 3:11 So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.) Heb 3:12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. Heb 3:13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. Heb 3:14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end; Heb 3:15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden no…

description: These are rough notes (need to spell check, etc.) that I used over the last few weeks teaching the Gospel of Luke. I'm sorry that some of the points aren't developed... I just use the notes to jog my memory so that I can expand on the points while I'm talking. I'm not sure if uploading rough draft notes will be helpful to anyone, but perhaps there will be something you can glean from them. Ideally one might choose to refine and polish before publishing, but I don't have that kind of time. Anyway, feel free to edit any mistakes and even add your own comments if you like! Blessings, William

description: William, I was just reading your notes and outline of Luke 3 and 4. Near the end you were bringing out the reasons for people not receiving healing, and you listed community unbelief, using the example that even in Jesus' hometown he could do no mighty works because of their unbelief. Then you say something that is SO important, in fact it's crucial to the faith message... "Our theology must not be based upon our experience (failure) but on The Word of God." You know, if you stop and think about it, there are many denominations who base their theology on this, their experiences, and have denied God's power and presence today... 'We prayed and didn't get the answer we wanted, thus proving that God no longer answers prayer, or heals, or delivers, or performs miracles.' But I know of some among us (X-FAer's)who have turned away because we've taken our focus from The Word and the promiser, Jesus; and based our current theology on our experiences and the wisdom of man. Divine healing is a prime example among some, Hobart Freeman died, so the message of divine healing must not be true. Oh! how tragic this is to see, people who once was confessing and believing in God's promises, walking away because the manifestation didn't fall within their time frame of convenience. "For ALL the promises of God in Him are yea, and in Him A-men, unto the glory of God by us."~II Corinthians 1:20 If anyone reading this has fallen into this snare, I encourage you to repent and return unto your first love, Jesus, who purchased your healing by His shed BLOOD at calvary...only believe and receive it by faith....He did all the work, it's free to you...
