Luke 6:39-40 - Where Do You Stand?

DATE: May 16, 2021
THEME: Where Do You Stand?
SCRIPTURE: Luke 6:39-40; Jeremiah 17:5-8; 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8

Jesus gives 4 caricatures of God's "Why" as to why and how we ought to love our enemies and forgive others. His points are not complicated. They're so simple, even children can understand them. Jesus' main idea throughout all of these sections is "Where do you stand?" Are you blind, log eyed, a bad tree/fruit, and your life built on sand? Or are you perceiving, clear eyed, a good tree/fruit and a life built on the solid rock foundation of God?
