Luke 6:20-49
Luke 6:20-26 “20 Then Jesus turned to his disciples & said,“God blesses you who are poor, for the Kingdom of God is yours. 21 God blesses you who are hungry now, for you will be satisfied. God blesses you who weep now, for in due time you will laugh. 22 What blessings await you when people hate you & exclude you & mock you & curse you as evil because you follow the Son of Man…”
CHALLENGE your idea of the “GOOD LIFE”
Luke 6:27-38 “27 But to you who are willing to listen, I say, love your enemies! Do good to those who hate you. 28 Bless those who curse you. Pray for those who hurt you.”
Make Jesus’ LOVE your definition of SUCCESS
Luke 6:39-45 “…45 A good person produces good things from the treasury of a good heart, and an evil person produces evil things from the treasury of an evil heart. What you say flows from what is in your heart.”
Genuinely EVALUATE your own LIFE
Luke 6:46-49 “…48 It is like a person building a house who digs deep and lays the foundation on solid rock. When the floodwaters rise and break against that house, it stands firm because it is well built…”
BUILD your life on JESUS
Main Idea
Reject your version of the “good life,” and allow Jesus to show you what it truly is. It’s different than what you think, but it leads to genuine life, both now and after death.
