What a league of peace over the rejection of the Saviour! When Jesus referred to the days of the Son of Man, He was speaking about His second coming, that is, the second coming of Christ. "Zaccheus, make haste, and come down; for to-day I must abide at thy house. [Note: See Renald E. Showers, Maranatha: Our Lord, Come! 28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; 29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. But they are not as the vultures who eat human flesh. (ii) Luke 17:3-4 speak of the necessity of forgiveness in the Christian life. Lot's wife was turned into a pillar of salt, that she might remain a lasting monument of God's displeasure against apostates, who begin in the spirit and end in the flesh. 22 And he said unto the disciples, The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it. Therefore He takes all from God, and feels all, as it really was for His glory. It must be plain enough, I think, even to a superficial reader, that as Luke alone gives the account, so to Luke it is most especially adapted for the purpose that the Holy Ghost had in hand in this Gospel, and also in this particular context. So this timid Joseph waxes valiant in fight. this is the law of the leper and the day of his cleansing, Leviticus 13 . "Then they shall begin to say to the mountains fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us. "Lord, remember me when thou comest in thy kingdom." It simply means that the Christian standard of forgiveness must immeasurably exceed the best the world can achieve. It concerns us, while they are continued, to improve them, and in the years of plenty to lay up in store for the years of famine. These were the persons who most of all set themselves against it. Before that day of His appearing there might be a premature "Lo here! And the apostles, no doubt, felt the same thing, because when Jesus said this, they said, "Oh,". That's no mere oversight or error. "It will have a silent entrance, without pomp, without noise; it cometh not with observation," meta paratereseos--with outward show. God has shown that His name is, as ever, a stumbling-stone for unbelief; but for the simple and spiritual a sure foundation, and most precious. There shall be two women grinding together; Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully." We walk by faith, not by sight. For the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah. It is absent in the best ancient Greek manuscripts. He takes that place as man. . I do wish that the Lord would increase my faith.Now this business of faith, though, becomes a very tough issue, because so many times we find ourselves trying to generate faith. ._1EPynDYoibfs7nDggdH7Gq{margin-bottom:8px;position:relative}._1EPynDYoibfs7nDggdH7Gq._3-0c12FCnHoLz34dQVveax{max-height:63px;overflow:hidden}._1zPvgKHteTOub9dKkvrOl4{font-family:Noto Sans,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:21px;font-weight:400;word-wrap:break-word}._1dp4_svQVkkuV143AIEKsf{-ms-flex-align:baseline;align-items:baseline;background-color:var(--newCommunityTheme-body);bottom:-2px;display:-ms-flexbox;display:flex;-ms-flex-flow:row nowrap;flex-flow:row nowrap;padding-left:2px;position:absolute;right:-8px}._5VBcBVybCfosCzMJlXzC3{font-family:Noto Sans,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:400;line-height:21px;color:var(--newCommunityTheme-bodyText)}._3YNtuKT-Is6XUBvdluRTyI{position:relative;background-color:0;color:var(--newCommunityTheme-metaText);fill:var(--newCommunityTheme-metaText);border:0;padding:0 8px}._3YNtuKT-Is6XUBvdluRTyI:before{content:"";position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border-radius:9999px;background:var(--newCommunityTheme-metaText);opacity:0}._3YNtuKT-Is6XUBvdluRTyI:hover:before{opacity:.08}._3YNtuKT-Is6XUBvdluRTyI:focus{outline:none}._3YNtuKT-Is6XUBvdluRTyI:focus:before{opacity:.16}._3YNtuKT-Is6XUBvdluRTyI._2Z_0gYdq8Wr3FulRLZXC3e:before,._3YNtuKT-Is6XUBvdluRTyI:active:before{opacity:.24}._3YNtuKT-Is6XUBvdluRTyI:disabled,._3YNtuKT-Is6XUBvdluRTyI[data-disabled],._3YNtuKT-Is6XUBvdluRTyI[disabled]{cursor:not-allowed;filter:grayscale(1);background:none;color:var(--newCommunityTheme-metaTextAlpha50);fill:var(--newCommunityTheme-metaTextAlpha50)}._2ZTVnRPqdyKo1dA7Q7i4EL{transition:all .1s linear 0s}.k51Bu_pyEfHQF6AAhaKfS{transition:none}._2qi_L6gKnhyJ0ZxPmwbDFK{transition:all .1s linear 0s;display:block;background-color:var(--newCommunityTheme-field);border-radius:4px;padding:8px;margin-bottom:12px;margin-top:8px;border:1px solid var(--newCommunityTheme-canvas);cursor:pointer}._2qi_L6gKnhyJ0ZxPmwbDFK:focus{outline:none}._2qi_L6gKnhyJ0ZxPmwbDFK:hover{border:1px solid var(--newCommunityTheme-button)}._2qi_L6gKnhyJ0ZxPmwbDFK._3GG6tRGPPJiejLqt2AZfh4{transition:none;border:1px solid var(--newCommunityTheme-button)}.IzSmZckfdQu5YP9qCsdWO{cursor:pointer;transition:all .1s linear 0s}.IzSmZckfdQu5YP9qCsdWO ._1EPynDYoibfs7nDggdH7Gq{border:1px solid transparent;border-radius:4px;transition:all .1s linear 0s}.IzSmZckfdQu5YP9qCsdWO:hover ._1EPynDYoibfs7nDggdH7Gq{border:1px solid var(--newCommunityTheme-button);padding:4px}._1YvJWALkJ8iKZxUU53TeNO{font-size:12px;font-weight:700;line-height:16px;color:var(--newCommunityTheme-button)}._3adDzm8E3q64yWtEcs5XU7{display:-ms-flexbox;display:flex}._3adDzm8E3q64yWtEcs5XU7 ._3jyKpErOrdUDMh0RFq5V6f{-ms-flex:100%;flex:100%}._3adDzm8E3q64yWtEcs5XU7 .dqhlvajEe-qyxij0jNsi0{color:var(--newCommunityTheme-button)}._3adDzm8E3q64yWtEcs5XU7 ._12nHw-MGuz_r1dQx5YPM2v,._3adDzm8E3q64yWtEcs5XU7 .dqhlvajEe-qyxij0jNsi0{font-size:12px;font-weight:700;line-height:16px;cursor:pointer;-ms-flex-item-align:end;align-self:flex-end;-webkit-user-select:none;-ms-user-select:none;user-select:none}._3adDzm8E3q64yWtEcs5XU7 ._12nHw-MGuz_r1dQx5YPM2v{color:var(--newCommunityTheme-button);margin-right:8px;color:var(--newCommunityTheme-errorText)}._3zTJ9t4vNwm1NrIaZ35NS6{font-family:Noto Sans,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:21px;font-weight:400;word-wrap:break-word;width:100%;padding:0;border:none;background-color:transparent;resize:none;outline:none;cursor:pointer;color:var(--newRedditTheme-bodyText)}._2JIiUcAdp9rIhjEbIjcuQ-{resize:none;cursor:auto}._2I2LpaEhGCzQ9inJMwliNO,._42Nh7O6pFcqnA6OZd3bOK{display:inline-block;margin-left:4px;vertical-align:middle}._42Nh7O6pFcqnA6OZd3bOK{fill:var(--newCommunityTheme-button);color:var(--newCommunityTheme-button);height:16px;width:16px;margin-bottom:2px} 37, 38.) We have similar teaching elsewhere. (VersesLuke 23:27-31; Luke 23:27-31. (Verses Luke 24:32-34.) In Luke we have not the charge of the work committed to the workmen, as in Mark, with signatures of God's gracious power accompanying; but here it is the message of a Saviour dead and risen, the Second Man, according to Scripture, and the moral need of man and the grace of God, who proclaims in His name repentance and remission to all the nations or Gentiles. You seasoned that roast just perfectly, oh that was good." Luke, on the contrary, says nothing of Galilee at this point. So two women at the mill; for here we have not to do with human judgments. So He closes this matter. He looked upon the Lord merely as good after a human fashion. We have further the crafty spies, hired by the chief priests and scribes, that feigned themselves just, and thought to take hold of His words, and embroil Him with the earthly powers. So repentance is necessary for forgiveness. Let him not regard his stuff at such a time, when it will be next to a miracle of mercy if he have his life given him for a prey. Okay, so this one is weird for me, because I don't remember this being worded this way and it seems like an intentional change to fit with these odd changes in the world. But here we may pause for a moment; for there are special and profoundly instructive touches peculiar to Luke. He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you while he was yet in Galilee, saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again. Then we have the ruler, to whom our Lord shows that all was wrong where a soul is not brought to know that there is none good but God. In some time of bitter need we pray with desperate intensity; the time passes and we forget God. And so you have two interpretations. (Wasn't it two people or a couple implying a man and a woman There are those who interpret this as the person who is taken is the one in, who is in trouble, because he is taken to the judgment. Does God forgive a man without repentance? He is drinking the cup in Matthew and Mark; He, the true, but rejected Messiah, the faithful servant, now suffering for sin, who had laboured in grace here below. When they have made their escape, they must not think of returning (Luke 17:32; Luke 17:32): "Remember Lot's wife; and take warning by her not only to flee from this Sodom (for so Jerusalem is become, Isaiah 1:10), but to persevere in your flight, and do not look back, as she did; be not loth to leave a place marked for destruction, whomsoever or whatsoever you leave behind you, that is ever so dear to you." The kingdom of God is in the life of every man who has submitted to the King, or to God as King. When shall we see this long-looked-for kingdom?". Note, We must not think that Christ's church and cause are lost because not always alike visible and prevailing. We have seen how this chapter settles, if I may so express it, the Christian system on its proper basis, bringing out its chief peculiarities with striking force and beauty. There is another word for the vultures that feed upon the flesh of men at the great battle of Armageddon. 8. It could not be. Is the Goat and Sheep judgment also the White Throne judgment? For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one part of the heaven, shines to another part under the heaven; so shall the Son of man be in his day ( Luke 17:22-24 ). This one stresses the distant future and the Second Coming. they said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. ", Apparently this was disobedience; and the others could well reproach their Samaritan fellow that he was unfaithful to Jesus. That would refer to Jesus himself. May we prove that it is indeed like Christ, of whom it speaks, needed, real, and unerring light to our souls; that it is also the sole, adequate, and irrefragable witness of divine wisdom and grace, but this only as revealed in and by Christ! Your faith has made you well.". Luke 24:45-49.) ), Luke then ushers in another scene, still more precious, peculiar in its details at least to himself the journey to Emmaus, where Jesus joins Himself to the two downcast disciples, who discoursed, as they went, on the irreparable loss they had sustained. And so with this soul whom grace had now touched. In those days, it wasn't uncommon for people to share a bed, married or not, same sex or not. No doubt man was guilty beyond measure and without excuse. Not so. But now the Jew is left to abhor Him, the Gentile to despise and crucify Him. He takes the same place now after His death and resurrection, there resuming relations with His disciples. 27 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. When we have done our best, we have done only our duty; and a man who has done his duty has done only what, in any event, he could be compelled to do. The effect, then, of that which was imminent was not peace for the earth yet, but peace in heaven most assuredly; and therefore we can comprehend how the Lord guided by His Spirit the song of the disciples at the close just as much as at the beginning; that of the angels expressed the general idea of God's purposes the moral effects to spring from the death of the incarnate Son. The other Gospels positively tell us it was as He went out. of prayer at all times "that men ought always to pray, and not to faint." But the words here are no expression of His suffering, as thus abandoned and atoning, but of the peaceful departure of His spirit, as man, into the hands of God the Father. if he repents, forgive him ( Luke 17:3 ). Christianity is based not on the work only but on the glory of the person and place of Him who is glorified in God. It was not the Lord's Supper, but the paschal cup. But here, on the contrary, by virtue of Christ's death who put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself, all disappears in the presence of the infinite grace of God all blessing secured, if there be but the acceptance of Christ and His work. No, it's gonna be like lightening, everybody is gonna see it when it happens.But before He comes in this glory.
