(July, 17-2016 on Sunday)
Luke 11:
54 waiting to catch Him in
something He might say. (9)
369
53 When
Jesus went outside, the Pharisees and the teachers of the law began to oppose
Him fiercely and to besiege Him with questions, (8)
138
44 “Woe
to you, because you
are like unmarked graves,
which people walk over without knowing it.” (8)
45 One of the experts
in the law answered Him, “Teacher, when
you say these things, you insult us also.”
46 Jesus replied, “And you experts in the law,
woe to you, because you load
people down with burdens they can hardly carry, and you yourselves will not
lift one finger to help them.
147
35 See
to it, then, that the light within you is not darkness.
(8)
36 Therefore, if your whole body is full of
light, and no part of it dark, it will be just as full of light as when a lamp
shines its light on you.”
Woes on the
Pharisees and the Experts in the Law
37 When Jesus had finished speaking, a Pharisee invited Him to eat with Him; so He went in and
reclined at the table.
147
26 Then
it goes and takes seven other spirits more wicked
than itself,
and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that person is
worse than the
first.” (8)
27 As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd called out, “Blessed is the mother who gave You Birth and Nursed
You.”
28 He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the Word of GOD and Obey it.”
147
17 Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them: “Any kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and a house
divided against itself will fall.
(8)
18 If Satan is divided against himself, how can his
kingdom stand? I say this because you claim that I drive out demons by
Beelzebul.
19 Now if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do
your followers drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.
147
8 I
tell you, even though He will not get up and give you the bread because of
friendship, yet because of your shameless audacity He
will surely get up and give you as much as you need. (8)
9 “So
I say to you:
Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door
will be opened to you.
10 For
everyone who asks
receives;
the one who seeks
finds;
and to the one who knocks,
the door will be opened.
147
50 Therefore this generation will
be held responsible for the blood of all the prophets that has been shed since
the beginning of the world, (5) (Since Abel was killed by his brother,
Cain.)
51 from
the blood of Abel
to the blood of Zechariah,
who was killed between the altar and the sanctuary. Yes, I tell you, this generation will be held
responsible for it all.
52 “Woe
to you experts in the law, because you have taken away the Key
to Knowledge.
You yourselves have not Entered,
and you have Hindered
those who were Entering.”
147
41 But
now as for what is inside you—be generous to the poor, and
everything will be clean for you. (5)
42 “Woe to you Pharisees, because
you give GOD a tenth of your mint, rue and
all other kinds of garden herbs, but you neglect justice and the love of GOD. You should have practiced the
latter without leaving the former undone.
43 “Woe to you Pharisees, because you love the most important seats
in the synagogues and respectful
greetings
in the marketplaces.
147
32 The
men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn
it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and now something
Greater(Jesus)
than Jonah is here. (5)
The Lamp of the
Body
33 “No one lights a lamp and puts
it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead they put it on
its stand, so that those who come in may
see the light.
34 Your
eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are healthy,
your whole body also is full of light. But when they are unhealthy, your body
also is full of darkness.
147
23 “Whoever
is not with Me is against Me, and whoever does not gather with Me scatters.
(5)
24 “When an impure spirit comes out of a person, it goes through arid places
seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’
25 When it arrives, it finds the
house swept clean and put in order.
147
Jesus and Beelzebul
14 Jesus
was driving out a demon that was mute. When the demon left, the man who had
been mute spoke, and the crowd was
amazed. (5)
15 But some of them
said, “By Beelzebul, the prince of
demons, He is driving out demons.”
16 Others tested Him by asking for a sign from heaven.
147
5 Then
Jesus said to them, “Suppose you have a
friend, and you go to Him at midnight and say, ‘Friend, lend me Three loaves of Bread;
(5)
6 a friend of mine on a journey
has come to me, and I have no food to offer him.’
7 And suppose the one inside
answers, ‘Don’t bother Me. The door
is already locked, and My children
and I are in bed. I can’t get up and give you anything.’
147
47 “Woe
to you, because you build tombs for the prophets, and it was your ancestors who
killed them. (2)
48 So you testify that you approve of what your
ancestors did; they killed the prophets, and you build their tombs.
49 Because of this, GOD in His Wisdom said, ‘I will send them prophets and apostles, some of whom
they will kill and others they will persecute.’
147
38 But
the Pharisee was surprised when he noticed that Jesus did not first wash before
the meal. (2)
39 Then the Lord said
to him, “Now then, you Pharisees
clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and
wickedness.
40 You foolish people! Did not the One who Made the outside Make the inside also?
147
The Sign of Jonah
29 As
the crowds increased, Jesus said, “This
is a wicked generation. It asks for a sign, but none will be given it except
the Sign of Jonah. (2)
30 For
as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so also will the Son of Man be to this generation.
31 The
Queen of the South will rise at the judgment with the people of this generation
and condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to listen to Solomon’s
wisdom; and now something Greater(Jesus)
than Solomon is here.
147
20 But
if I drive out demons by the Finger of GOD, then the Kingdom of GOD has come upon you.
(2)
21 “When a strong man, fully
armed, guards his own house, his possessions are safe.
22 But when Someone stronger attacks and overpowers him, He takes away the armor in which the man trusted and divides up His plunder.
147
11 “Which
of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead?
(2)
12 Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?
13 If you then, though you are evil,
know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in Heaven give the Holy Spirit to
those who ask Him!”
147
Jesus’ Teaching on
Prayer
1 One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When He finished, one of His disciples
said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.”
2 He
said to them, “When you pray,
say: “‘Father, hallowed be Your Name, Your Kingdom come. (2)
3 Give us each day our daily Bread.
4 Forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into Temptation.’”
3 Give us each day our daily Bread.
4 Forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into Temptation.’”
