Love from Revenge 1: Vengeance
Interpreting the Scriptures rightly, when Jesus does this he identifies it as fulfilling the Scriptures. Jesus didn't come to abolish the Scriptures but to fulfill them, and this changes everything including how we read and interpret Scripture ourselves. How are we to treat those who harm us or treat us unfairly? Jesus has the answer and it may surprise you what He has to say. Jesus reverses the disciple’s first responsibility from taking to giving. There’s a different way to live — Jesus lived it. With this, Terry begins a several-part study with this one from Luke 16:16-18 and Matthew 5:38-42 entitled Love from Revenge 1: Vengeance.
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.
