3 Jn. 10:40-42

4 Lesson 14 – More Healing 14:1-6 Jesus was invited into the house of a Pharisee on a Sabbath v. 1 Present also was a man who was afflicted with dropsy v. 2

5 Dropsy Abnormal accumulation in body tissue Commonly attributed to faulty heart, lungs Bloating of the face Arms & legs severely swollen, “doughy-like” Abdomen feels like a drum Difficulty in breathing Gallons can be drawn off; body fills up again Zondervan Pictorial Encyclopedia Of The Bible, Vol. 2, p. 134

6 Lesson 14 – More Healing 14:1-6 Jesus was invited into the house of a Pharisee on a Sabbath v. 1 Present also was a man who was afflicted with dropsy v. 2 Jesus asked, “Is it was lawful to heal on the Sabbath?” v. 3

7 Lesson 14 – More Healing 14:1-6 The Jews were silent to His question… Jesus heals the man v. 4 Again, Jesus exposes the Jewish hypocrisy over doing good on a Sabbath v. 5 The Jews had no answer for this v. 6

8 Lesson 14 – “Attitude” Parables 14:7-24 Still in the Pharisee’s house, Jesus noticed how the Jews chose their seats v. 7 Parable Of The Guests vv. 8-11 The basic lesson = pride (elevation of one’s own self worth) cp. Prov 6:17 16:18 1 Cor 10:12 1 Pet 5:5-6

9 Lesson 14 – “Attitude” Parables 14:7-24 Parable Of The Guests vv. 8-11 We all desire to be honored The question is who will honor us & when? Will we wait for God, or honor ourselves? Consider Jesus as an Example Phil 2:5-9 1 Pet 5:6

10 Lesson 14 – “Attitude” Parables 14:7-24 Jesus addresses the Pharisee who invited Him v. 12a He teaches on the proper attitude when trying to be thoughtful of others vv. 12b-14 Don’t do good for others expecting “payback” Do good for those who cannot return the favor

11 Lesson 14 – “Attitude” Parables 14:7-24 Jesus addresses the Pharisee who invited Him v. 12a He teaches on the proper attitude when trying to be thoughtful of others vv. 12b-14 “Repayment” will come at the resurrection

12 Lesson 14 – “Attitude” Parables 14:7-24 Jesus addresses the Pharisee who invited Him v. 12a He teaches on the proper attitude when trying to be thoughtful of others vv. 12b-14 One in the crowd expressed thankfulness at being “invited” to the kingdom of God v. 15

13 Lesson 14 – “Attitude” Parables 14:7-24 Parable Of The Dinner vv. 16-24 Told in response to the one who spoke in v. 15 Many were invited to a great supper v. 16 The time came to summon the invitees…they all made excuses for not coming vv. 17-20 The host invited others vv. 21-24 cp. vv. 12-14

14 Lesson 14 – “Attitude” Parables 14:7-24 Parable Of The Dinner vv. 16-24 Those invited “after the fact” were helpless, downtrodden…they saw their great need They benefited from the master’s generosity Both the Jews’ failure & the Gentiles’ blessings are the focus Rom 3:1-2 Eph 2:11-18

15 Lesson 14 – Discipleship 14:25-35 Jesus also defines what it means to be one of His disciples One who loves his physical family, himself more than Jesus cannot be His disciple v. 26 “Hating” illustrated in Gen 29:30-31

16 Lesson 14 – Discipleship 14:25-35 Jesus also defines what it means to be one of His disciples One who refuses to “carry his own cross” (denying himself, even to the point of death) and will not follow Jesus cannot be His disciple v. 27

17 Lesson 14 – Discipleship 14:25-35 Jesus also defines what it means to be one of His disciples One who shows an interest in discipleship, but does not “count the cost” (a willingness to forfeit all he has) cannot be His disciple vv. 28-33 cp. Heb 10:34

18 Lesson 14 – Discipleship 14:25-35 One who attempts to be a disciple without the kind of commitment Jesus emphasized in vv. 26-33 is described in vv. 34-35 He is like salt that has lost its savor…useless Not only not productive, but really destructive Jesus shows the seriousness of discipleship
