Luke 3 Luke 3 Lord we thank you for your

baptism with the Holy Spirit we thank

you for living in us we thank you for

giving us the inclination to open up to

you and receiving you Lord we thank you

Lord for your fire for your zeal for

your light for everything you stand for

and for being allowed in you as a member

of your body amen

thank you for your word thank you for

your voice

thank you for inscribing

your will your words in our hearts Luke

3 verse 1 now in the fifteenth year of

the rule of Tiberius Caesar Pontius

Pilate being ruler of Judea and Herod

being king of Galilee his brother Philip

king of the country of Eternia and fahan

itis and Lysanias king of Abilene when

Anna’s and Caiaphas were high priests

the word of the Lord came to John the

son of Zacharias in the wasteland and he

came into all the country round about

Jordan preaching baptism as a sign of

forgiveness of sin for those whose

hearts were changed baptism as a sign of

forgiveness of sin

for those whose hearts were changed as

it says in the book of the words of

Isaiah the prophet the voice of one

crying in the wasteland make ready the

way of the Lord

make ready the way of the Lord make his

roads straight to make ready the way of

the Lord is to ask the Lord for

forgiveness of your sins and to receive

his forgiveness for your sin every

Valley every valley will be lifted up

and all the mountains and hills made low

and a twisted will be made straight and

a rough ways smooth everything will be

brought to one level able to receive the

Lord the valleys will be lifted up the

mountains made low and a twisted will be

made straight and a rough ways smooth

all the ways will be made ready for the

Lord and all flesh all flesh will see

the salvation of God his name is Jesus

so he said to the people who went out to

him for baptism you offspring of snakes

at whose word are you going in flight

from the wrath to come let us be clear

as to which people those were

he would say that to the crowds that

came to him offspring of snakes who sent

you to come here may clear by your acts

that your hearts have been changed and

do not say to yourselves we have Abraham

for our Father for I say to you that God

is able from these stones to make

children of Abraham God is able to make

people to worship him from whatever he

pleases out of nothing if necessary be

sure before you ask for forgiveness that

your heart has changed this is the way

in how to see if someone is sincere a

lot of people say well forgive me for

death but they don’t mean it their heart

hasn’t changed they’re taught as to why

they did that did not change and so they

go and have to do it over and over again

this is a misconception on their part as

to how forgiveness works for the Word of

God says make sure that your heart has

changed before you go for forgiveness on

the other hand let’s look at ourselves

if someone comes from forgiveness what

does the Word of God say must we say all

they don’t really mean it how many times

shall we forgive our brother or sister

or whomever it is who comes asking for

forgiveness one time seven times

No 7 times 77

continuously at all time whenever they

request it blessed be your Lord but as

ask her for forgiveness make clear by

your acts that your hearts have been

changed don’t do the same thing over and

over again make clear by your acts that

your heart has changed and do not say to

yourselves we have Abraham for our

father for I say to you God is able from

these stones to make children of Abraham

even if you see nothing but dry stones

God is able to raise up people and even

now the ax is put to the root of the

trees and every tree which does not have

good fruit will be cut down and put into

the fire and the people put questions

through him saying what have we to do

and he made answer and said to them to

them he who has two coats let him give

to him who has not even one and he who

has food let him do the same the tax

farmers came to him for baptism and said

to him master what have we to do and he

said to them do not make an attempt to

get more money more money than the right

amount and man of the army put questions

to him saying and what have we to do and

he said to them do no violent acts to

any man and do not take anything without

right and let your payment be enough for

you and while the people are waiting and

all man were questioning in their hearts

about John if he was the Christ or not

John made answer saying to them all

truly I give you baptism with water but

what is coming who is greater than I

whose shoes I am not good enough to undo

he will give you baptism with the Holy

Spirit and with fire in whose hand is

the instrument with which he will make

clean his grain he will put the great

the good grain in his store but the

waste will be burned in the fire which

will never be put old he will make the

selection between the good grain and a

waste and a chaff and so comforting them

with these in other words he gave the

good news to the people Christ is to

come the salvation of God is to come for

all who repent from their sins and turn

to him but Herod the King because John

had made a protest on account of

Herodias his brothers his wife and other

evil things which Herod had done did

this most evil thing of all and had John

shut up in prison now it came about that

when all the people had been given

baptism Jesus having had baptism with

them was in prayer when the heaven being

open the Holy Spirit came down in the

form of a dove and a voice came from

heaven saying you are my dearly loved

son with whom I am well pleased
