Luke tells us what had the largest bearing on the Gentiles, on the heart, its wants, and its affections. But here we have another scene, His weeping over that very city that was about to cast Him out and crucify Him. There is much vagueness in minds as to this merging all in the atonement, to the great detriment of their distinctness even in holding the atonement itself. You would be prone to think that the person wasn't sincere. There was His body; it was risen. It would have been not faith, but presumption, I do not doubt, at such a time, and under such circumstances, for him to have come nigh. The hardness of His saying lay not in any lack of perspicuity.

"The gospel that is to set up Christ's kingdom in the world shall fly like lightning through the nations. Turning to his disciples, Jesus added that one day he would be taken from them. So repentance is necessary for forgiveness. But even where that is maintained in a general way, at least, it is an awful thing to deny any part of His moral glory; and what is it but denying, this, to shut out those real sufferings which prove the extent and character of His humiliation, exalt and endear Himself in our eyes, and issue in the richest streams of comfort for His saints, who can afford to lose none of His sympathy? This was given appropriately by Matthew and Mark. They were all very merry; so were the men of Sodom, and yet very busy too: they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded. Jesus hears this tale of sorrow from their lips, brings out the state of their hearts, and then opens the Scriptures, instead of merely appealing to the facts in the way of evidence. http://lexiconcordance.com/hebrew/7901.html, Just so you know You're inspiring me to go check.

Of affliction and calamity, that shall be upon the Jewish nation, and which is before called that day, Luke 17:31 and therefore is not to be understood literally of the night: there shall be two [men] in one bed; this is said agreeably to the time, the night before mentioned, that being the time to be in bed, at rest and asleep; for they that sleep, sleep in the night; and still suggests the security the people of the Jews would be in, at the time of their destruction. Hence, it is said, "He spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray." 5. It was not a question of human willingness or power, but of receiving from God. Luke 18:15-17).

Why have different Bibles translated the Greek word duodifferently? is, thither will the eagles be gathered together." In it, as we know, bread is broken the sign of His death. There was a sense of grace, as well as of sin, and sensitiveness about God's will. Do you have to forgive him if he doesn't repent? Accordingly, Luke puts together those two features the grace that illustrates His first coming, and the real nature of the second coming of Christ, as far as regards the appearing of God's kingdom. And Lord, we would with Your disciples pray, increase our faith. It will be the same on the day on which the Son of Man is revealed.

And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood a far off ( Luke 17:11-12 ): Which, of course, was the law of the land.

Now I think that we oftentimes make a mistake in this, thinking of faith in quantity and we think oh a mustard seed is so tiny, just a little tiny tiny bit of faith. Luke 17:34 (NKJV). And so they say they are taken to be put into the great battle of Armageddon where the birds are going to come and feast upon the body of the people. The point there is just the same immediate blessedness, and not merely when the body is raised from the dead by and by. You can't live your life without having stumbling stones placed in your path, but woe to the person who put the stumbling stone The explanation I heard was that sex was long ago called the "little death." But which of you, who has a servant plowing or feeding your cattle, will say to him by and by, when he's come in from the field, Go and sit down and eat your dinner?

It is listed in I Corinthians chapter 12 as one of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. When they have made their escape, they must not think of returning (Luke 17:32; Luke 17:32): "Remember Lot's wife; and take warning by her not only to flee from this Sodom (for so Jerusalem is become, Isaiah 1:10), but to persevere in your flight, and do not look back, as she did; be not loth to leave a place marked for destruction, whomsoever or whatsoever you leave behind you, that is ever so dear to you." It gets its name from an incident in 2010, when many people on the internet said they clearly But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation." I've read the bible all the way through a few times, there's some strange stuff in there, lol. This was especially of value for Gentiles, because it was one of the great problems for the heathen mind, whether the soul existed after death, not to speak of the resurrection of the body. Then it comes when it makes those humble, and serious, and heavenly, that were proud, and vain, and carnal,--when it weans those from the world that were wedded to the world; and therefore look for the kingdom of God in the revolutions of the heart, not of the civil government. Then we have the hearers and disciples disclosing their thoughts. Now this last portion is difficult of interpretation. Luke 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. What unwearied travail of love! It is a very serious thing to tamper with someone's faith in Jesus Christ. Thus the Holy Ghost was not given yet as an indwelling person, but rather a reiteration of the Father's promise. For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost."

At any rate the scorning of Jesus proceeds; and Pilate, carried away against his conscience by the will of the people, gave sentence that it should be as they required.

But, in truth it is impossible to go on with God aright, until the personal question is settled by divine grace. "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." [4.] His resurrection did not terminate their path of rejection. In the old days, people actually went to sleep when they were in bed! [5.] Is the Goat and Sheep judgment also the White Throne judgment? He looked upon the Lord merely as good after a human fashion. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; but the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all ( Luke 17:25-29 ). Comes back again before the priest, and he looks over him again, and there's no new eruptions or blotches then the man is proclaimed cleaned by the priest. Neither shall they say, Lo here! 3. WebNo phenomenon is as fascinating as the Mandela effect. Now a lot of times we are made to feel very guilty"Well, brother, if you just had enough faith. And they remembered his words." The Mandela Effect refers to a situation in which a large mass of people believes that an event occurred when it did not. I trow not. Wherever Christ is, believers will flock to him, and meet in him, as eagles about the prey, without being directed or shown the way, by the instinct of the new nature. The weeping in John is in the presence of death, which had touched Lazarus. That's so hard, isn't it? "Yes, I forgive you." Sometimes they will be under inward restraints, will not have such tokens of the presence of the Son of man with them as they have had. He called His ten servants, and delivered to them ten pounds; and said unto them, "Occupy till I come." It peculiarly fell within the domain of Luke. Matthew and Mark tell us the sad truth that, when He needed the disciples most, they all forsook Him and fled. Hence it would seem to give an open contradiction to those that deny the reality of the resurrection body, and of its proper affections. But that which is especially intended here is to show what a dreadful surprise destruction will be to those who are secure and sensual. But it is the written word which, as the apostle himself shows, is the sole adequate safeguard for the perilous times of the last days. The answer is proverbial, and may be explained so as to answer each side of the question: Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.
