The Power and the Threat of the Kingdom
Oct 27, 2024 • Pastor Jason Smith
Throughout this central section of Luke, Jesus emphasizes the difficulty of entering the kingdom.
Somehow, the American church, or the church in general, has been convinced that a 30-second prayer secures the kingdom.
Jesus’ teaching now turns to personal responsibility. In a society that refuses to take responsibility, Jesus makes it clear that nobody but ourselves answers for us when it comes to entering his kingdom.
Christ clarifies that there will be many surprises in the kingdom's membership.
Who will be in the kingdom?
