2. Woe
Matt. 11:20-30

3. Unrepenting Cities
Chorazin
Bethsaida
Capernaum

4. Woe To Us When God Starts Speaking Of Cities… Not Individuals
You Know Things Are Really Bad.
God Looks and Sees The Majority of Hearts Are Evil.
Yet, God Knows How To Save The Righteous.

5. 2 Peter 2:5-9
5 “If God did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when He brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly;
6 and if He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to destruction by reducing them to ashes, having made them an example to those who would live ungodly thereafter;

6. 7 and if He rescued righteous Lot, oppressed by the sensual conduct of unprincipled men…
9 then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from temptation, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgment.”

7. Just For Comparison Chorazin and Bethsaida Capernaum Tyre And Sidon
Sodom

8. The Purpose of Miracles
Miracles Were Designed To:
Be Seen By All
Cause Contemplation
Lead To A Conclusion

9. The Purpose of Miracles
John 7:12
“There was much grumbling among the multitudes concerning Him; some were saying, ‘He is a good man’ ; others were saying, ‘No, on the contrary, He leads the multitude astray.’”
There Were Really Only Two Possible Conclusions:
Jesus Was A Fraud
Jesus Was From God

10. The Purpose of Miracles
Miracles Were Never Designed To Cause Indifference.
Those Who Rejected Jesus and His Miracles Were Never Asked Why.

11. It Didn’t Have To Stay This Way
Why Did People Not Believe In Jesus’ Miracles?
V. 25, They Were Wise and Intelligent.
V. 27, They Could Truly Know God, But They Had To First Know Jesus.

12. “Come Learn of Me” Jesus’ Invitation For The Weary and Heavy-Laden.
Jesus Gives Ease From:
The Burden of the Law and Traditions
The Burden of Life
The Fear of Death
The Burden of Sin
“Come Learn of Me”
