Women In Discipleship
Weekly Devotional – 2010
The Red Thread Series

A wonderful “Red Thread” of salvation runs throughout the Bible, and each week we are looking at a different book of the Bible to see that Thread that leads to Jesus and God's perfect plan for redeeming mankind to Himself.

SEPTEMBER - WEEK FOUR
 
Book of the Bible:  Luke
Theme of the Book:  Luke documents the life of Christ Jesus as the Son of Man, with emphasis on Jesus' offer of salvation to the world.
Luke gives a thorough account of Jesus, with emphasis on how Jesus had compassion for Gentiles, women, children, tax collectors, sinners and many others.
Main Character(s):  Jesus, Elizabeth, Zechariah, John the Baptist, Mary, The Disciples, Herod the tetrarch, Pilate, Mary Magdalene
The “Red Thread”:  Jesus, the Great Physician, interacts with the sick, (outcasts in society) with whom He came to offer His salvation.

Key Verses:  Luke 5:31-32; 15:7; and 19:10
And Jesus answered and said to them,
'It is not those who are well who need a physician, but those who are sick.
I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance.'
I tell you that in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.'
'For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.'
 
APPLICATION:
Luke, being a physician, had a unique perspective on life.

His desire was to present Jesus to the ordinary people of society.
  • Like Luke and Jesus, how am I presenting Jesus to those with whom I come in contact?
  • Will I have the courage to speak?
  • What resources has God given me to extend a helping hand to those in need?
