Preparing for the Storm Luke 12:54-59

Luke 12:54-55 54 He also said to the crowds, “When you see a cloud rising in the west, you say at once, ‘A shower is coming.’ And so it happens. 55 And when you see the south wind blowing, you say, ‘There will be scorching heat,’ and it happens.

Preparation is wise. Proverbs 22:3 The prudent sees danger and hides himself, but the simple go on and suffer for it. Proverbs 6:6–8 6 Go to the ant, O sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise. 7 Without having any chief, officer, or ruler, 8 she prepares her bread in summer and gathers her food in harvest.

Luke 12:56 56 You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of earth and sky, but why do you not know how to interpret the present time?

What was the present time? Luke 4:18-19 18 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, 19 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”

Luke 12:56 56 You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of earth and sky, but why do you not know how to interpret the present time? Why are they hypocrites?

Luke 12:57-59 57 “And why do you not judge for yourselves what is right? 58 As you go with your accuser before the magistrate, make an effort to settle with him on the way, lest he drag you to the judge, and the judge hand you over to the officer, and the officer put you in prison. 59 I tell you, you will never get out until you have paid the very last penny.”

Cure for Hypocrisy The Gospel 1 John 1:5-2:1 1 John 2:1 Jesus is an advocate. 1 John 1:8-9 Jesus frees you to be real. 1 John 1:5-7 Jesus frees you to love.

2 Peter 1:8-9 8 For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 For whoever lacks these qualities is so nearsighted that he is blind, having forgotten that he was cleansed from his former sins.
