As Jesus draws nearer to Jerusalem, His call into His Kingdom and qualifications to enter become clearer. Today's text demonstrates two essential qualities, crucial for entering the Kingdom of God, and also important for living in His Kingdom.

Jesus has noted the challenges of living in the Shadowlands between His Kingdom's assault on this rebel territory and its ultimate victory. This is where we live day-by-day: in the "already, but not yet." Such a life can be discouraging, and we can grow impatient. Today's text is a call to live full-of-faith.

Kingdom truth is pervasive in Jesus' ministry and in all the Word of God. Debates swirl around the issues of God's reign, especially His ultimate Kingdom here on earth. Jesus addresses some of these in today's text; His answers might surprise us. Is His Kingdom here on earth? And what difference does it make? Let's reason together (Isaiah 1:18) and remember Jesus' warning: we should be careful how we listen (Luke 8:18).

We live in a world of comfort, blessing, and entitlement. This often makes it difficult even for believers to take a posture of gratefulness for God's goodness towards us. What should our response to God's mercy be? Do we enjoy God's gifts more than the gift-giver? What should real faith in Christ tangibly produce in our lives?

Most wouldn't doubt that America is an immoral land: full of people willing to engage in sinful lifestles without a moments hesitation. But today we have to face the hard truth that American churches, both their constituents and leadership, are morally failing. We need to know the signs of moral failure, and how to fight it. Let's Reason together (Isaiah 1:18) and remember Jesus' warning: we should be careful how we listen (Luke 8:18).

One unending blessing of heaven will be complete unity. Without sin, we will all share the mind of Christ, so there will be no differences in opinion, no offenses, no conflict. However, this ain't heaven! How should we understand and respond to differences of opinions/convictions between believers?

Rebuke your brother. Some nearly salivate at that responsibility; others practically freeze in distress. As Jesus-people we are to live in community, and that means occasional friction, offense, and hurt. Should we overlook when others wrong us? Should we confront?

Jesus' very practical instructions regarding the heart of relationships include commands to rebuke, repent, forgive, and restore. We are pausing to consider each of these - this morning we unpack what repentance looks like.

Authentic Christianity, following Jesus through His gracious Gospel, is often relationally complicated. In our flesh we not only fail our Lord, but we offend and sin against others, and are offended and sinned against. As Jesus-people we should care enough about Truth to confront sin. And we must be captured enough by Grace to forgive. But what does that look like in real life? Let's reason together (Isaiah 1:18) and remember Jesus' warning: we should be careful how we listen (Luke 8:18).

In Luke 16, Jesus delineated some markers of false religion; in today's text He calls us to qualities of genuine, faith-filled living as we follow Him. His disciples then needed these words, but no less than we do today.
