Parables

Luke 16:1-12 THe parable of the Unjust Steward. Here the Lord commends those of this generation who are wiser than the children of the world.
Luke 16:19-31 The parable of the Rich man and Lazarus. Charity never faileth. We learn here that charity is one of the main virtues that will get us into the Kingdom of God. Becoming more like God is the purpose of this life, not making our fortune. WE cannot take our fortune with us, but we can take the knowledge that we did well in the sight of the Lord.
Luke 17:11-19 The Ten Lepers. Faith, faith is the main ingredient to make a miracle. There were many people throughout the Bible that had faith. It is no coincidence that Jesus, upon healing the Ten Lepers, asked them to show themselves to the priests. They who had leprosy on their hearts you could say. Many of them did not believe in the power and authority of Jesus Chirst, and such was their downfall. The one man who turned and thanked GOd will for sure be blessed in his next life for his complete and utter faith and gratitude in Jesus Christ.
Luke 18:1-8 Parable of the Unjust Judge. GOd will always ALWAYS always remember the righteous. WE may feel that He is ignorant of our pain and grief, but He is always with us. SHowering us with His glory and comfort. SO is His eye on those who are unrighteous!
Luke 18:9-14 The Pharisee and the Publican. Those who are humble will be exalted over those who are proud.
