It is quite likely Jesus shared these truths at multiple times in His ministry, and some of what Luke assembled for our passage in this episode may share the same themes as other teaching in other gospels but what Luke describes may have been shared at different points in Jesus\u2019 ministry.<\/p>\r\n<p>However, before thinking that Jesus\u2019 message is reserved for only those who walked the earth during the first century, realize that what Jesus shares here may be one of the most relevant messages our world needs to hear today.<\/p>\r\n<p>With that said, let\u2019s dive in to our passage. Our passage for this episode is found in Luke\u2019s gospel, chapter 6, and we will read from the God\u2019s Word Translation. Starting in verse 37, Luke tells us Jesus taught the crowds saying:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>37\u00a0<\/sup>\u201cStop judging, and you will never be judged. Stop condemning, and you will never be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.\u00a0<sup>38\u00a0<\/sup>Give, and you will receive. A large quantity, pressed together, shaken down, and running over will be put into your pocket. The standards you use for others will be applied to you.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>39\u00a0<\/sup>Jesus also gave them this illustration: \u201cCan one blind person lead another? Won\u2019t both fall into the same pit?\u00a0<sup>40\u00a0<\/sup>A student is no better than his teacher. But everyone who is well-trained will be like his teacher.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>41\u00a0<\/sup>\u201cWhy do you see the piece of sawdust in another believer\u2019s eye and not notice the wooden beam in your own eye?\u00a0<sup>42\u00a0<\/sup>How can you say to another believer, \u2018Friend, let me take the piece of sawdust out of your eye,\u2019 when you don\u2019t see the beam in your own eye? You hypocrite! First remove the beam from your own eye. Then you will see clearly to remove the piece of sawdust from another believer\u2019s eye.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Let\u2019s pause reading here for a moment, because two things Jesus has shared jumped out at me. Actually we probably could stop reading here, because in these few verses we could have several full length sermons about, however, for our time together, I want to draw our attention onto two big things.<\/p>\r\n<p>Our passage opened with the words, \u201c<strong>Stop judging, and you will never be judged. Stop condemning, and you will never be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Give, and you will receive.<\/strong>\u201d The essence of this message Jesus shares is that \u201c<strong>the standards you use for others will be applied to you<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\r\n<p>This is significant for us to pay attention to, because if we are quick to judge, quick to belittle, or quick to condemn someone else, then we shouldn\u2019t be surprised when we are judged, belittled, and condemned quickly. In contrast, <strong>if we forgive others without condition, love those who don\u2019t deserve love, and give everyone in our lives the benefit of a doubt, then we can expect to receive forgiveness, love, and be given the benefit of a doubt ourselves.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Some of you might be thinking that you\u2019ve tried this and it hasn\u2019t worked. Know that if we act this way towards others and we don\u2019t receive the same measure in return, trust that God will use the measure we used when He comes to judge. In the big picture, <strong>the only thing that matters from eternity\u2019s perspective is what God thinks and how God judges. Jesus has promised us that we can change the measure God uses to judge through the way we interact with others.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>The other big idea in this first section of our passage is closely connected to the first. When Jesus starts talking about looking at a speck of sawdust in another believer\u2019s eye while having a wooden beam in your own eye, this challenges us with the truth that <strong>we should be significantly more focused on the issues in our own lives than we are with the issues in other peoples\u2019 lives.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Most people judge what they see others doing while they want to be judged by their intentions, but this is a double standard. If we judge others by their actions, we will be judged by our actions regardless of our intentions, whether we like it or not. <\/strong>Our energy is best spent looking at the weak areas of our own lives because the only person that can remove the symbolic wooden beam from your eye is you, after you have acknowledged its presence.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>With God\u2019s help, we can remove the wooden beam from our own lives and then live a life that blesses others. <\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Continuing reading, Jesus shares another powerful set of ideas. Jumping back in at verse 43, Luke tells us Jesus continued, saying:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>43\u00a0<\/sup>\u201cA good tree doesn\u2019t produce rotten fruit, and a rotten tree doesn\u2019t produce good fruit. <sup>44\u00a0<\/sup>Each tree is known by its fruit. You don\u2019t pick figs from thorny plants or grapes from a thornbush.\u00a0<sup>45\u00a0<\/sup>Good people do the good that is in them. But evil people do the evil that is in them. The things people say come from inside them.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Pausing briefly again, this truth we just read is so powerful. Even when we want others to look at our intentions, the only standard that we can be fairly measured against is our actions. <strong>Jesus tells us that good things are done by good people, while evil people do evil things. The words that come from someone\u2019s mouth, or you could say that the words that a person writes, whether with a pen or on a computer, whether offline or online, the words come from inside them.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Many people have become professionals at looking one way in public but they act a different way in private. This means that how someone acts in private is a better indicator of what is in their heart. While it is harder to see someone\u2019s private life than their public one, know that people can only live dual lives for so long. Eventually, one life will win out, and eventually the public life will affect the private life, or the private life will spill into the public life.<\/p>\r\n<p>Let\u2019s finish our passage and look at one of Jesus\u2019 most famous illustrations. Continuing in verse 46, Jesus asks the question:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>46\u00a0<\/sup>\u201cWhy do you call me Lord but don\u2019t do what I tell you?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>47\u00a0<\/sup>\u201cI will show you what everyone who comes to me, hears what I say, and obeys it is like.\u00a0<sup>48\u00a0<\/sup>He is like a person who dug down to bedrock to lay the foundation of his home. When a flood came, the floodwaters pushed against that house. But the house couldn\u2019t be washed away because it had a good foundation.\u00a0<sup>49\u00a0<\/sup>The person who hears what I say but doesn\u2019t obey it is like someone who built a house on the ground without any foundation. The floodwaters pushed against it, and that house quickly collapsed and was destroyed.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>In this conclusion, I am always amazed by the contrast present. The contrast in Luke\u2019s version of the two homes is not two houses that are built in different locations, but simply two houses that are built next to each other but with each having a different foundation.<\/p>\r\n<p>The only difference between these houses is the foundation, and the only difference between the people each home represents is obedience. Jesus describes the first group as \u201c<strong>everyone who comes to me, hears what I say, and obeys it<\/strong>\u201d. This first group has a solid foundation that survives a flood.<\/p>\r\n<p>Jesus describes the second group as a \u201c<strong>person who hears what I say but doesn\u2019t obey it<\/strong>\u201d. Both groups hear Jesus\u2019 words; the only difference is obedience. <strong>Obeying Jesus leads to a flood-proof foundation for our lives!<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Nowhere in this passage are we promised safety from floods. Instead, we are challenged with the big truth of how to structure our lives so that the floods of life don\u2019t sweep us away.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Before wrapping up this episode, I want to point us back to the irony in Jesus\u2019 question leading into this illustration. In verse 46, Jesus asks His followers \u201c<strong>Why do you call me Lord but don\u2019t do what I tell you?<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>This challenge is just as applicable today as it was when Jesus first spoke these words. <strong>If we are going to call Jesus the Lord of our lives, then we should obey His teaching.<\/strong> While there is way more involved than simply a checklist of things to do or don\u2019t do, the most important thing for us to do is to study what Jesus taught and to apply the instructions Jesus gave into our lives.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Christians who ignore Jesus\u2019 teachings are imposters. They risk having their spiritual homes swept away when the floods Jesus spoke of come. Don\u2019t simply listen to Jesus. Apply the truth He teaches into your life and build a solid foundation of obedience that will weather life\u2019s storms!<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>As we come to the end of another podcast episode, here are the challenges I will leave you with:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>As I always challenge you to do, continue seeking God first in your life and choose to accept and apply Jesus\u2019 teaching into your life. While many things Jesus shares are challenging, applying Jesus\u2019 teachings are the only way to lay a flood-proof foundation for our lives.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Also, continue praying and studying the Bible for yourself, and discover through the pages of God\u2019s Word the truths Jesus wants us to focus in on. Discover for yourself what Jesus teaches and don\u2019t let someone else dictate to you what you should believe about Jesus.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>And as I end every set of challenges by saying in one way or another, never stop short of, back away from, chicken out of, or get flooded out of where God wants to lead you to in your life with Him!<\/strong><\/p><\/div><\/div>\r\n<p>\r\nYear in Luke &#8211; Episode 12: In a set of truths Jesus&#8217; shares, discover how Jesus challenged not just those living in the first century, but also those of us living over 2,000 years later. Discover just how important it is to not only listen to Jesus, but also to apply His truth into our lives today!\r\n<\/p><p><strong>Join the discussion.<\/strong> Share your thoughts on this passage.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2128","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-audio"],"nelio_content":{"autoShareEndMode":"never","automationSources":{"useCustomSentences":false,"customSentences":[]},"efiAlt":"","efiUrl":"","followers":[],"highlights":[],"isAutoShareEnabled":false,"networkImageIds":[],"permalinkQueryArgs":[],"series":[],"suggestedReferences":[]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
