In today’s sermon, Pastor Brian continues our "First Things First" series with “Who Is My Neighbor?” This powerful message digs into the teachings of Jesus from Luke 10, highlighting the importance of loving God and loving others. Pastor Brian explores the parable of the Good Samaritan, revealing how true compassion reflects Christ's love in our daily lives.
Key Points from the Sermon:
Authority in Christ: The 72 disciples returned with joy, realizing that even demons submitted to them in Jesus' name. Jesus reminded them to rejoice not in their power, but in the fact that their names are written in heaven (Luke 10:17-24).
A Gospel-First Life: Jesus rejoiced in the Father’s will, praising God for revealing His truth to those with childlike faith. A life centered on the Gospel secures eternal life (Luke 10:21-24).
The Greatest Commandment: When asked how to inherit eternal life, Jesus affirmed the command to love God fully and to love your neighbor as yourself (Luke 10:25-28).
The Good Samaritan: In the parable of the Good Samaritan, Jesus teaches that our neighbor is anyone in need, and true love is demonstrated through mercy and compassion (Luke 10:29-37).
Mission of Love: Our mission is clear: love God and love all people in our pathway, just as Christ has loved us (John 13:34-35).
