the gospel according to luke

Unlike the Luke Gospel chapter 11 that opened with a special request from the disciples to Jesus to teach them how to pray, Luke 18 opened with Jesus initiating this discussion that bothers on a vital ingredient for a successful prayer life. We will read the text and learn one or two lessons on...

It was in Mark 6:2 when the crowd beheld the marvelous works of the master that they wondered out aloud and quipped, "what wisdom is this?". This has been my reaction ever since the Luke challenge began, especially as I read through the 14th chapter of Luke as Jesus proceeded to educate the...

Luke 13 seems to open on a very tragic account. Then, Luke reports (13:1), “on the same occasion,” some were present who reported to Jesus about the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. We don’t know any more about this event than is here reported. Apparently, Pilate...

It's the twelfth day of the Luke challenge and we are already halfway into this journey and it has been a journey of transformation occasioned by new lights been shed on the word of God! I have a deep affinity for God's word but in the last 12 days or so that affinity has been taking to new...

THE GOSPEL OF PRAYERS It's not difficult to label the book of Luke as the 'gospel of prayer'. More than any other book of the gospels, the gospel of Luke took time to expound on the prayer life of Jesus! Right from Luke 3 when Jesus was baptized the Bible said as he was praying the heavens...

Luke's gospel started on the same note as Luke 9. This was another call to evangelism, as Jesus sent out his disciples to go and preach to the surrounding cities. On the first look, Luke 10 almost looks like a repetition of Luke 9 except that someone will say that the numbers differ. In Luke 9...

We essentially acquire new skills via teaching and training, the combination of these two forms of learning is the best way to develop a new skill trait! There are some learning programs that involve only teaching, teaching as in talking or lecturing, which focuses on the body of knowledge in a...

The major theme of Luke 8 is just the same as that of Luke 7, almost every incidence or teaching or story in this chapter bothers on the subject of faith! We have the parable of the sower which is a focus on the seed of the word of God! And strong faith as we have come to know is rooted in the...

GREAT FAITH, GREAT MIRACLES(Luke 7:1-18) "When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel." Luke 7:9 KJV This scripture defines for me the theme of the book...

Luke 4 opened with the temptation of our Lord Jesus Christ. This is one Luke gospel that I have read over and again and there is so much to learn from Christ here, but let us remember where we ended our studies in Luke 3. The baptism of Christ came with a spiritual endorsement from heaven that...

There is so much that intertwined the life of Jesus and John that but for the book of Luke we would not have known. First, their mothers were cousins to each other! And Mary during the early days of her pregnancy was with Elizabeth during her later days of pregnancy. The Bible didn't tell us...

LUKE 2 ANALYSED This is day 2 and we are right in the center of the chapter that will define every other chapter that comes after. This is Luke 2 and this is the BIRTH of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. And in talking about the birth of Jesus, the Luke gospel gave us details that the other...
