It was common for a mother and daughter or two female friends to grind grain together in Jesus day (cf. shall the Son of man be sitting on the right hand of the power of God. Such is another great point shown out here. Simon, sadly ignorant of himself, is full of bold promises to go to prison or to death; but, says the Lord, "Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me." WebLuke 17:34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. There she stands alone. That the Messiah must suffer before he must reign (Luke 17:25; Luke 17:25): "First must he suffer many things, many hard things, and be rejected of this generation; and, if he be thus treated, his disciples must expect no other than to suffer and be rejected too for his sake." It would be wrong to say that the kingdom of God was in the Pharisees. He knew neither God nor good. (1.) . Both can't be right, and when you get into a place like that I just find that it's probably best to file it away and say, "Well, I'll just wait for further information. (Wasn't it two people or a couple implying a man and a woman The Pharisees were looking for visible signs so that they could work out when the Messiahs kingdom would begin. But it was truth that did not so directly build up the soul, nor did it so immediately concern the Lord Himself. Hence our Lord expounds to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself. God teaches us to know the worth of such mercies by the want of them. The veil of the temple, too, which characterized the whole system of the Jewish religion, was rent from top to bottom. Nor is this out of keeping with the tenor of Luke's Gospel, as, indeed, it is only here that we have the story at all. And so our Lord Jesus vindicates him. This was the sole warrant and ground. ", Meanwhile, He gives them also a new thing. 2. That all good Christians should certainly escape, but many of them very narrowly, from that destruction, Luke 17:34-36; Luke 17:34-36. (Verses Luke 19:11-27.). The other Gospels connect it with the future; Luke speaks of what was to be made good shortly "righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. I take for granted now that there is a firm hold of His bearing God's wrath on the cross. The Mandela effect is a situation where a large group of individuals incorrectly believes an event occurred when it didnt. What unwearied travail of love! In Luke 23:1-56 Jesus is found not before Pilate only, but Herod; and the two men who heretofore hated each other are here reconciled, now that it is a question of rejecting Jesus. He that was fearful and unbelieving, on the contrary, has his mina taken from him. Of course, whenever He returns some people on earth will be sleeping and others will be awake. Surely one of the things which should draw all men together is their common need of God. When we have done our best, we have done only our duty; and a man who has done his duty has done only what, in any event, he could be compelled to do. (Luke 19:1-10.). Is it not often true that a husband leaves the duties of the church to his wife? No story in all the gospels so poignantly shows man's ingratitude. In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back. It has two meanings. This he saw not; and therefore, the Lord proves him, and searches the ground of his heart, and demonstrates that after all he valued the world more than God and eternal life. What would Christ's kingdom be to him, if his sins were not blotted out? But then he does not say what the English version makes him say, "As he was come nigh," but simply, "When he was nigh to Jericho," leaving it open to other Scriptures to define the time with more precision. But I believe that Lot is a classic sign of God's ability to deliver the righteous while reserving the ungodly for the day of judgment as Peter tells us in his second epistle. h Vid. Even if he sins against you seven times in the day, and if seven times he turns to you, saying, 'I repent,' you must forgive him.". John tells the tale of his own shame, with Peter's. It seems particularly thus expressed in order not to continue the phrase to the Romans or previous imperial powers from Babylon downwards. In Luke 17:34 Jesus says, I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. Let me suggest to you that a mustard seed is quite small. Now, whenever I read something like that, I wonder, "Lord, how much faith do I have?" "The judgments that are to destroy the Jewish nation, to lay them waste, and to deliver the Christians from them, shall fly like lightning through the land, shall lay all waste from one end of it to another; and those that are marked for this destruction can no more avoid it, nor oppose it, than they can a flash of lightning." But then, further, He shows that meanwhile His servants are called to occupy themselves till he come. http://lexiconcordance.com/hebrew/7901.html, Just so you know You're inspiring me to go check. Dorothy really says, Toto, Ive got a feeling were not in Kansas anymore.. Why seek ye the living (One) among the dead? The flood came, and destroyed all the sinners of the old world; fire and brimstone came, and destroyed all the sinners of Sodom. He that blesses us not only communicates a blessing, but gives the power that returns to God a blessing the power of real worship communicated to human hearts on the earth, by the Lord Jesus now risen from the dead. There were mighty purposes of God to be accomplished; and not only must He rise on the third day, but He enjoins that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name repentance necessarily showing the great moral work in man, remission of sins being God's great provision of grace through redemption to clear the conscience. "Oh darn, if only I had been grinding grain like the Bible said, then I'd have had a 50% chance of getting taken.". This means that both Luke 17:30-35 and Matthew 24:37-41 are events that will occur after the second coming of Christ. The godly remnant of the Jews must know the rejected Messiah there. Jesus told them that since he was the Messiah and was living among them, the Messiahs kingdom had already begun (Luke 17:20-21; cf. Luke 22:63-65.) Many slang terms have changed within my life. But, at the same time (verses Luke 18:31-34), He takes unto Him the twelve and says, "Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished." (compare Leviticus 13:45-46; Numbers 5:2.) The King James was written 400 years ago. The kingdom of God is in the life of every man who has submitted to the King, or to God as King. When and where does the Goat and Sheep judgment occur? He came down to associate with the poorest and feeblest on earth. [2.] The people behold, the rulers deride, and the soldiers mock; but a superscription was written over Him in Greek, and Roman, and Hebrew letters This is the King of the Jews. (Wasn't it two people or a couple implying a man and a woman sleeping? It was part of the very perfection of Jesus that he felt and deprecated the awful cup. (Verses Luke 23:39-43.). Copyright Like The Master Ministries. He was about to drink of a far different cup, which His Father would give Him the anti-type of the passover, and the basis of the Lord's Supper. Never was any thing but reality in Jesus; but if in the days of His flesh there was one passage more affecting than another, any thing which more than another presents to us His sorrows clearly, graphically and with solemn instruction for us, anything for God Himself above all glorifying (the cross alone excepted) it was this very scene where Jesus avoids and wards off no suffering, but bends to every stroke, (and what was He spared?) Ministers and churches will sometimes be under outward restraints. Remember Lots wife. This he had never suspected in himself before. It is not that God did not accompany His message with signs. To me it is a grievous thing, this denial practically of a large part of the sufferings of Christ. 5. In Luke the same thing, occurs here, as we said applied to His account of the sermon on the mount. Here it is prayer out of the midst of circumstances of desolation and deep trial prayer with evil near at hand, as well as divine judgment. He was not like a mere man who waited till he could not help following, and then went in steel through the trouble. The consistency of this with all we have seen in Luke, from first to last, is unquestionable: Son of God of the Highest, as of David also; but He is emphatically, and in every detail, the Son of man. He thought there was no demand of goodness but what he was able to meet; but the trial was too much for him. In another case a leper came and said, "Lord, if You will, You can make me clean." (Ver. Yet the day often comes when an aged parent is a nuisance; and many young people are unwilling to repay the debt they owe. ), There is a third supplemental point, which I only touch on His instant disappearance after He was made known to them in the sign of His death. It is not, "Enter into the joy of thy Lord;" but one receives ten cities, another five, and so on. Go not after them, nor follow them; do not heed such suggestions. We are sure that the Judge of all the earth will do right; and therefore, when he sends a judgment on purpose to avenge the death of his Son upon those that crucified him, he will take care that none of those who glorified him, and gloried in his cross, shall be taken away by that judgment. If we approach a thing saying, "It can't be done," it will not; if we approach it saying, "It must be done," the chances are that it will. Does he thank a servant because he has done what he was ordered to do? And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me; that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel." He was a demonstration of a man submitted to the authority of God. Only there is a difficulty here to some that Luke appears to contradict what we have in the other accounts of this part of Christ's progress. "Oh, I'm sorry. ), Then follows another parable of a very different character. There is a place for rebuke. The Mandela Effect is a phenomenon that makes us question even the most mundane memories from the past. And they said, Nothing. Though Scripture was perfectly expounded by Jesus, and though hearts burned as they heard of these wondrous things, still it must be shown in concentrated form that the knowledge which alone can be commended by God or trusted by man is this Jesus known in that which brings His death before the soul. And if he repents forgive him. There was not a word of all this when He spoke of the siege and capture of the city under Titus. I. First of all appears a hatred of sin in the fear of God; then the repentant heart rebukes the shameless evil of his fellow, who feels that it is, least of all, a time thus to sin boldly in the presence of death, and of God's judgment. I trow not. The unstated reason is implicit, namely, to judge some and not the others. You're not gonna see an outward display of the kingdom at this time. Bible Answer: Luke Apparently the wife of Lot was rescued by angelic power; she was certainly brought out of the doomed city; but it was only the more strikingly to be the monument of God's all-searching judgment. This closes the direct teaching here addressed to His followers (Verses Luke 17:1-10.). Then follows the judgment but very briefly on the scribes; and in contrast With their selfish hypocrisy, ("which devour widows' houses and for a show make long prayers") the Lord's estimate of real devotedness is the widow's mites. (b) It may mean, the kingdom of God is among you. Luke shows it as a question of the heart's state and trust in God. There is another word for the vultures that feed upon the flesh of men at the great battle of Armageddon. Claim: In the Star Wars film, "The Empire Strikes Back," Darth Vader says, "Luke, I am your father." Say, I'm an unprofitable servant. 106. You would be prone to think that the person wasn't sincere. "Shall we pray. We have further, in our Lord's answer to the Pharisees, who demanded when the kingdom of God should come, a striking revelation, and most suitable to Luke's purpose. This, I apprehend, is the clear meaning of His altered language here. The publican before us was not meant to give us a full view of the Christian state, or of the blessings of the gospel, but of a man taught of God to feel his own nothingness as a sinner before Him; and God's estimate of him, in comparison with the man who was satisfied with his state. Jesus was on the very point of being cast out and cut off. God has many arrows in his quiver, and uses which he will in making war upon his rebellious subjects, for he can make which he will effectual. If, on that day, anyone is on the housetop, and his goods are in the house, let him not come down to take them. The Christian standard takes the Rabbinic standard, doubles it and adds one; but it is not a matter of calculation.

He would erect no barricade of miracles to shelter Himself. I tell you, in that night there'll be two in one bed; the one will be taken, the other will be left. They said to him, "Where, Lord?" I wonder if the "two people" really represent our bi-polar nature? And when it is planted in the ground and covered with dirt and there germinates.

Save yourselves from this untoward generation. 27 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. This great and glorious fact superseded all others. On the person and position of Christ depends the whole of Christianity. cleansed by water and blood. Note, It is the folly of many curious enquirers concerning the times to come that they look for that before them which is already among them. That Christ and his kingdom are not to be looked for in this or that particular place, but his appearance will be general in all places at once (Luke 17:23; Luke 17:24): "They will say to you, See here, or, See there; here is one that will deliver the Jews out of the hands of the oppressing Romans, or there is one that will deliver the Christians out of the hands of the oppressing Jews; here is the Messiah, and there is his prophet; here in this mountain, or there at Jerusalem, you will find the true church.

Another touching, and beautiful trait in our Lord's dealing is here worthy of remark. Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken and one will be left. But along with this we have also prayer (Luke 18:1-43), not merely as suitable to a soul's need, and in connection with the word of God received from Jesus, which we have seen in Luke 11:1-54. So there was. But, in truth it is impossible to go on with God aright, until the personal question is settled by divine grace. Then, after settling this moral truth which was fundamental for the soul, He turns to His disciples, and tells them that the days would come when they should desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and should not see it; for the kingdom will be displayed by and by. If a bad man so acted, not because of his hatred of the wrong done to her that was oppressed, but to get rid of being always troubled by her cries for justice if it be so even with the unjust, would not God take up the cause of His own elect, that cried unto Him day and night? inTruthbyGrace And the apostles, no doubt, felt the same thing, because when Jesus said this, they said, "Oh,".
