The Power of Love and Luke 6

Here's the video for you to respond to. Remember we are trying to figure out the nature of God's kingdom and mission in the world. Review the sermon on the plain (that's the fancy title for Ch.6 of Luke) and post a response comment. How does the video interpret and apply these teachings of Jesus? What questions come to mind? What does Jesus say that challenges you and how you view the world? Is Jesus crazy?

  1. I think his relation between Righteousness and justice is pretty accurate. "The kingdom of god is about the power of love"3:19 proves that the underlying message of the video is that god is willing to accept anyone and that he want's it to be open to not just anyone, but everyone.

  2. Michael is totally right. When he says "Seek first God's kingdom and his rightousness, and everything else will be taken care of." That totally embodies what I feel we have to do as Christians: follow God's command, help the weak, love one another. All that = God's rightousness.

  3. Umm . . . what those two said.

    That video was totally righteous, man.
    It's time for people to realize that the U.S's action, goals, etc. aren't the same as God's.

  13. Yep. My Science teacher was talking about it during class. I don't personally know him or anything.

    I do take offense to my team being called a bunch of wimps, however. Trust me my friend, what we do is anything but wimpy.
