Matthew 12:43-45 and Luke 11:24-28
“Notice what you notice.” We’ve probably all heard sermons on today’s topic, that someone has an unclean spirit cast out, but the person does not replace the unclean spirit with “something positive” and the unclean spirit returns “en force”. Jesus’ comments are perfectly in line with Samuel’s sermon today on discipleship. Samuel spoke of conversion, but no follow-up – of salvation without sanctification. We all need to fill those empty spots that are created when we walk away from troublesome areas in our lives.
David’s sermons the past two weeks have offered wonderful insights on repentance. Samuel’s sermon today on discipleship is a natural follow-up to David’s repentance sermons. So listen online to Samuel if you missed church today – and to David’s previous sermons if you missed those!
Slava Bohu!
Amen! Samuel’s sermon is truly about filling up those spaces that Jesus’ cleans out in our lives.
