Jesus: Fully Man; Fully God
Luke 20:39-44 Please remain standing and turn in your copy of God’s Word to Luke chapter 20. Today, we will be reading verses 39 to 44. We are backtracking two verses to add context. One of the things you’ll notice if you read our passage today and then look at the Synoptic Gospels, the Seeing a Light Gospels, you look at Mark and you look at Matthew, you’ll see that there’s a little bit more to this story.

The LORD Knows Me Well!
Psalm 139 Turn to Psalm 139, our reading will be 139. We’ll read the whole thing, but we are gonna split Psalm 139 up.

Mixing Politics & Religion
Luke 20:19-26 hear the word of the Lord from Luke chapter 20, beginning at verse 19. The scribes and the chief priest sought to lay hands on Jesus at that very hour, for they perceived that he had told this parable against them, but they feared the people.
