We’ve been studying the Gospel of Luke for the last several months and this week we jump back to Luke 7, Jesus has just healed the Centurions servant and raised the only son of a widow.
Jesus’ message is one that… moves hearts. It transforms hearts, or it hardens hearts holding onto their own pride, and self-righteous version of what they want in a religion or faith. Despite the overwhelming evidence that Jesus is the Messiah, many still have questions and doubts, others are wholeheartedly responding to the Gospel, and still others are stuck and rejecting the forgiveness and life Jesus teaches. What we see in Luke 7 we see today, in our hearts, and the hearts of those around us.
