Hell, Fire, and Brimstone from Heaven

Luke 9:51-57 – As disciples of Christ we do not retaliate when opposed, we do not take up arms to force people to accept our gospel. We do not take revenge.

Resolve: His messianic kingdom cannot come about unless He dies. V51

Reception: the king sent messengers to a village in Samaria preparing the way of the king V52

Rejection: the king is rejected. But they did not receive Him. V53

Retribution: the sons of thunder want fire from heaven to come down. V54

Rebuke: Jesus rebukes them. V55
V55 discussed 55b and that some manuscripts do not have this part of the verse.

Let’s be sure we are believing in the true messiah.

Return: He returns to His resolve.
