Top Highlights
“continually testing the faith and zeal of the churches” (Luke 8:1–3)
“1. People may show outward respect for Christ but remain unconverted” (Luke 7:36–50)
“The diligence of worldly men over earthly matters should put to shame the coldness of professing Christians and their lack of concern over the things of eternity. The enthusiasm of business people traveling across the seas in their work reproves the indolent believer who is so slack about heavenly treasures. Our Lord’s words are solemn and worth weighing: ‘the people of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the people of the light’ (verse 8).” (Luke 16:1–12)
“The root of humility is right knowledge. The person who really knows himself and his own heart, who knows God and his infinite majesty and holiness, who knows Christ and the price at which he was redeemed, that person will never be a proud person.” (Luke 14:7–14)
“The subject is Christian love, which is the grand characteristic of the Gospel—love, which is the height of perfection—love, without which a person is nothing in God’s sight.” (Luke 6:27–38)
