COVETING GOD'S JURISDICTION

This was not the sermon I had intended to deliver this particular Sunday. But after working through the night on something else, the Spirt convicted me that this was what the Lord wanted me to say. Somebody, maybe you, needs to hear it.

In Luke 12, a young man presents Jesus with a case for judgment. It is an estate dispute involving the man and his brother. Jesus' answer seems perplexing, as though Jesus is saying He can't handle the case because it's outside of His "jurisdiction." A closer look reveals quite a different and deeper truth, one that applies to each of us and to all of us.
