Message to Kings - A Biblical History of Man Brett Heaston

Jesus rebukes the Pharisees in Luke 15 with three parables: the parable of the lost sheep, the parable of the lost coin, and parable of the lost son. These parables speak of what brings JOY to heaven? Further, we discuss the rendering of the bitterness of the older brother and the hidden trinity and the role of the trinity in salvation, the greatest of miracles.   Luke 15www.messagetokings.com

Jesus spends time with Mary and Martha.  Mary sits as Jesus' feet as if she is one of the disciples breaking religious and social norm.  But, Martha was distracted with a bad attitude and serving.  In this episode, Jannel discussed the difference here between relationship vs religious serving, and to take this as an invitation.  Guest Speaker: Jannel HeastonLuke 10:38-42www.messagetokings.com

In Luke 11-13, Jesus demonstates the range of his ministry, by prophesying 5 woes to the Pharisees, scribes, and lawyers which parallel Isaiah 5. Then, he teaches the parable of the faithful servant, the parable of barren fig tree, and the parable of the rich fool.  Next, he evangelizes to the crowd when he delivers a woman from a spirit of infirmity.  Luke 11:37-54Luke 12:13-21Luke 12:54-59Luke 13:1-5Luke 13:10-17www.messagetokings.com

A lawyer comes to Jesus, to justify himself, and asks him how to inherit eternal life.  Jesus answers with the greatest commandment: LOVE.  The lawyer questions further, "but, who is my neighbor?" Jesus' answer was the Parable of the Good Samaritan.  Luke 10:25-37James 2:13Leviticus 21www.messagetokings.com

The Book of Luke, only, includes the sending out of the 70 disciples ahead of Jesus.  The disciples were sent out to heal the sick, and do deliverance, and declare the good news of the kingdom.  In this episode, we cover the sending out of the 70, the judgment of cities, the accountability to evangelism, and the apostolic nature of the Roman Empire.  Luke 10:1-24www.messagetokings.com

While the disciples went to and from Jerusalem, Jesus taught lessons on the road driving home the importance of his nature, the character of Christ.  "Lest we offend them," Peter caught a coin for the temple tax out of the mouth of a fish. Then, Jesus taught on humility, power by the wrong spirit, and three reasons people refused to be his disciple: comfort, money/tradition, and sin.  Matthew 17:24-18:9Matthew 8:18-22Mark 9:33-50Luke 9:46-50Luke 9:51-62www.messagetokings.com
