Love from Revenge 3: Othering
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 are not like us? Jesus answered this question in a most interesting way in the Sermon on the Mount. Join Pastor Terry as he shares a study from Matthew 5:38-47 (and Luke 16:16-18) entitled Love from Revenge: Othering.
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.
