What Shall I Do to Inherit Eternal Life?

The Lord's Day Morning May 2, 2010 Luke 10:25-37 “What Shall I Do to Inherit Eternal Life?” Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III This is the day that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. Let us worship God. Lord our God, we have just sung of choirs of angels who sing Your praise and glory in the heavens above and we with feebler lays now come and mingle our voices with theirs, the church militant and the church triumphant, in one accord singing the praises of You, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We ask that You would come down now and dwell amongst us by Your Spirit that we might worship You in spirit and in truth, that where two or three are gathered in Your name there You would be in the midst of Your people. May Your word dwell richly within our hearts this morning. May the…

It’s Not about Martha. It’s about You

The Lord's Day Morning May 9, 2010 Mother's Day Luke 10:38-42 “It's Not About Martha. It's About You.” Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III As we continue to prepare for worship, let me invite you to take your hymnals in hand and turn to number 115. Our opening song of praise is “All Creatures of Our God and King,” a glorious text set to one of the most beautiful and majestic hymn tunes that we have. We’re working through the gospel of Luke in our preaching. We've come to the very end of Luke chapter 10 and this is the passage where Martha and Mary host Jesus in their home. It is the perfect passage for Mother's Day and I did not plan this so I’ll be delighted to be in God's Word with you at the end of Luke chapter 10. Because it is Mother's Day I thought you…

Ligon Duncan III O come, let us worship and bow down, let us kneel before the Lord our Maker, for He is our God and we are the people of His pasture, the flock under His care. Let us worship Him! If you have your Bibles I'd invite you to turn with me to Luke chapter 11 as we continue to make our way through Luke's gospel. We come today to the passage in which one of Jesus’ disciples asks Him to teach them to pray, not an uncommon thing amongst disciples. But the very question and the answer that Jesus gives prompts us to ask the Lord in prayer to help us to pray. So let's pray. Heavenly Father this is Your Word. We ask that You would teach us to pray by Your Son Jesus according to…

Ryle's words about the second petition, “Your kingdom come.” That's the petition we're going to be studying especially…

Around the time of Christ's life on earth, it was very common for Jewish rabbis to be asked by their followers, their disciples, how to pray or to be taught to pray. And we have examples in extra biblical literature of people who did this. In the Bible, we also have the example of John the…
