The Good Samaritan Luke 10 Jan. 28, 1996

The Good Samaritan Luke10 Jan. 28, 1996

Christmas eve water pump
out near Vinita, OK...I was picked up
how many times have I seen others on the road, yet did not stop tp help

Let's catch Jesus...what do I do to inherit eternal life
it's no good enough just to talk of the things of God,
in in our heart there is darkness or selfish intent

Jesus answers...love neighbor as self
but who is my neighbor...gentiles not the neighbors of Jews

Good Samaritan story
hurt man most likely a Jew...certain road...samaritan insertion

one of your kind came along...Priest...passed by on other side

another one of your kind came along...levite...looked on him...then passed by

a Samaritan came along [Russians, mid-east terrorists, political extremist]
he tore garments...got blood on them...walked let another man ride
took him to help...paid the bill...interrupted his life to help

not suggesting that you get killed trying to help...or is it others have been crucified to do the right things
exactly what Jesus did for us... we were stripped naked in our sin
how much are we indebted to Him
what can we render such a deed of kindness?

James4:17 To know the good, and do it not, it is sin
at least this...its better to err onthe side of helping too much, than to turn away the needy

how are we doing?
we could be doing more, better, but some of us are doing well
Sue Hart story

go thou and do like wise
In the name of the Father Son and Holy Spirit Amen
