The Poor, The Crippled, The Lame, And The Blind

 The Poor, the Crippled, the Lame, and the Blind


Luke 14:1-14

Key Verse 14:13


1. Read verses 1-6.  Consider Jesus’ conversation with the Pharisees and experts in the law. What can we learn from Jesus’ question in verse 5?

 

2. Think about the problem Jesus noticed in verse 7 and the parable he gave in verses 8-11. Jesus says in verse 11, “Everyone who exalts himself will be humbled.” Why do you think God designed things to work this way?


3. Consider the words Jesus gave to his host in verses 12-14. The expression “at the resurrection of the righteous” indicates the existence of a resurrection of “the righteous.” What about “the unrighteous”? Who are “the righteous”? 


4. Read verse 13. Who are “the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind”? 


5. In verse 14 Jesus says, “you will be ‘repaid’ at the resurrection of the righteous.” What does this promise [especially the word ‘repaid’] indicate about the life that is to come for the righteous? What does this passage tell us about the real desire Jesus has for his host?
