Are you clinging to Christ alone to get you to heaven, or are you trusting in yourself? There is always the temptation to think that our own good works, or our own religious efforts will be enough to make us acceptable to God. But in this precious passage, Luke gives us a precious insight into the agony and achievement of the cross, as he contrasts the obedience and faithfulness of Jesus, to failure and frailty of his disciples. His aim is that we may learn to trust not in ourselves for salvation, but to cling to Christ alone.
This sermon was preached at St George's Church, Penang on 10th April 2022.
