Welcome to the Sunday morning teachings at Casper Alliance Church. This week Jason is continuing the series "The Kingdom of God." Casper Alliance Church will be exploring the Luke parables on the Kingdom of God. Luke 18:9-17 is the passage we looked at this week.
In the midst of the message I deviated a bit from the original teaching plan. If you were to join our fellowship in person you would get a sense that this is what type of worship gathering we have. We love spontaneous activity. We love enjoying each other. We expect the Spirit of God to move in our church. When you put that together we become very flexible.
My Notes to see what I was going to say
Luke 18:9-17 English Standard Version (ESV)
The Pharisee and the Tax Collector
9 He also told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and treated others with contempt: 10 “Two men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee, standing by himself, prayed[a] thus: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. 12 I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I get.’ 13 But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner!’ 14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified, rather than the other. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”
Let the Children Come to Me
15 Now they were bringing even infants to him that he might touch them. And when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them. 16 But Jesus called them to him, saying, “Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. 17 Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.”
We hope you are enjoying the teaching at Casper Church. You are invited to join us for our Sunday gathering at 11am
