The Gospel According to Luke | Luke 13:31-35 | Pastor Rob Haslam
As is so often the case, a good thing can be perverted and end up causing great harm.
This can be true of compassion when it is misunderstood and misapplied. Christians can often forget that while compassion towards people is warranted, compassion to various ideas, lifestyles, actions, beliefs, and worldviews is not.
This can also be true of standing for truth when it is brandished as a weapon against people rather than used and an invitation to draw them towards the author of truth.
Jesus’ truth informed compassion is not twisted or affected by the trials of culture and time.
OUR COMPASSION NEEDS TO LOOK LIKE JESUS’ COMPASSION -
The Gospel According To Luke | Luke 13:22-30 | Pastor Rob Haslam
One of the most important questions any of us can ask is this. Will I be saved? Will I go to heaven? How can I know God will save me? Will I be saved when I die? Can you think of a more important question with such long-term implications? I mean, we’re talking eternity here. How do people answer?

The Gospel According To Luke | Luke 13:18-21 | Pastor Rob Haslam
In this passage, Luke records Jesus explaining the Kingdom of God to people. That fact that Jesus was explaining it suggests that it was something that required explaining. So, he uses common language to help people connect with the meaning of the Kingdom of God.
JESUS WANTS HIS LISTENERS TO UNDERSTAND THE KINGDOM OF GOD
Why would Jesus want His listeners to understand the Kingdome of God?
Seek first His Kingdom.
Understand the purpose of it and our role in it.
Learn how to live in the reality of it. -
The Gospel According To Luke | Luke 13:10-17 | Pastor Rob Haslam
Jesus’ perspective on the Sabbath as a day for deliverance is vindicated, as Luke recounts the humiliation of Jesus’ opponents and the joy of the crowds at his wonderful (healing) deeds (Luke 13:17).
Although we do not hear about the woman who has been healed at the end of the passage, the praise she offers to God echoes with the crowds’ rejoicing. Both themes of praise and rejoicing are emphasized by Luke as appropriate responses to God’s work in Jesus.
OUR PERSPECTIVE DOES NOT DETERMINE GOD’S PERSPECTIVE.
Isaiah 55:8-9
8 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. 9 “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.
So let us be careful to lead people towards freedom rather than remain in bondage. -
The Effect of an Empty Tomb | Matthew 28:1-8 | Pastor Andrew Sherman
If the tomb of Christ was indeed empty, it is the most significant event in all of human history. The Roman soldiers, the disciples, and us today all are effected by that empty tomb.

Palm Sunday | Who Is The King? | Pastor Rob Haslam
If you describe a man as the king of something, you mean that he is the most important person doing that thing or he is the best at doing it. He was the king of the cowboys.
That is about as close a relationship as we have to the term “King”, in our modern experience. We did not grow up in a country with a king. There is no ultimate authority in Canada that would be like a king. There isn’t someone that we would all run out into the streets and pledge our allegiance to. So how do we connect with the concept of Jesus as King as Israel would have understood it, and in addition to that Jesus as Savior King.
