Summary Luke 14-16
Ch 14
While visiting the house of a Pharisee, Jesus heals a man from an abnormal swelling in his body. Knowing that He was being carefully watched, He posed the question if it were lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not.
Jesus continues to use parables teaching on pride and humility:
He expresses the cost of being a disciple, the price that one must pay is compared to carrying one’s own cross.
Chp 15
Jesus expresses that there is great joy in finding the “one.” He uses the demonstration if you had 100 sheep and one left, would you not leave the 99 and go after the one? So it is with His children that is near and dear to Him.
Chp 16 covers the management of money and being righteous. It illustrates that if one can be faithful over a few, then one can be trusted with much.
