Lazarus is Still at the Gate

There are all kinds of fanciful ideas about heaven and hell that certain Christian traditions want to use this parable from Luke 16 to support. But is that really what Jesus had in mind when He told this story? There certainly are enteral implications that can be drawn from verses 19-31, but Jesus had in mind something a bit more foundational in giving this story's primary message. Terry shares a study entitled "Lazarus is Still at the Gate."

Series Information

Terry proclaims the one Gospel through the history, research, rememberings and faith expressed in the text of the Gospel According to Luke. Jesus himself is the good news expressed by Luke. Beginning with the birth narratives unique to Luke's presentation, the good news of the Kingdom explodes into faithful view as each account, teaching, parable and event lived out and offered by Jesus, the Messiah-King, is examined the way Luke seemingly examined Jesus in his own work. Here we find a Jesus to love, a Jesus to follow, and ultimately a Jesus to worship.
