Text: Luke 24:32
Title: Holy Heavenly Heartburn
Intro: Five Things That We Experience When the Fire Burns
- There is Companionship (Vs. 15)
1)Jesus drew near during their confusion
- A) just like us: sometimes Jesus is walking with us, and we don’t recognize that he is there. (vs.16)
B.) Their confusion was because they did not believe that Jesus had resurrected. (Vs17- 26)
C.) Jesus rebukes them for their unbelief. (V25-26)
- There is Clarity (vs 27)
A.) It’s all about Jesus: We must remember that we are here to please and learn of him.
B.) Once there is clarity, we can acknowledge Jesus and become a witness for and of Him.
C.) Clarity came because he taught them from the word.
D.) God’s word brings light into any heart that is willing to listen and heed.
- There is Constraining (Vs 28-29)
- Constrained-defined as: To urge irresistibly or powerfully; to lay hold of.
- This is how we are to accept Jesus.
- Christ’s love for us and our love for him controls us: that is, keeps us in bounds. Not unwillingly but to please Him.
- God sets boundaries for the child of God. His Commandments
- There is Communion (Vs 30-31) Our Lords table is spread.
- Not for his frozen people but for his chosen people.
- Christ becomes Host in their own Home.
- Note their eyes were opened.
- They Knew Him- They saw the wounds of Calvary, and His Passion
- There is Courage (Vs 33)
- They Came out of hiding to proclaim the things that they had seen.
- His passion now burned in their hearts.
- They were excited to go and tell-where is our excitement?
- His Word brings about Understanding which gives us the courage be his witnesses.
