Luke 10:25-37 <\/strong>“Crown Him Lord of service.<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

Christianity is new life from God and it is this new life that goes out to the broken and suffering world. In this story we see the outreach of a saved man’s soul. Here is the way to test our Missionary convictions and call. We have a two fold call.<\/p>\n

I: The call to see, to understand the condition of a needy, broken, and suffering world.<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Here a man lies broken, bleeding, and dying.
\n2. His real condition is…
\na. A victim of greed and gain. Serves a wake of misery. Here we see the three master passions of mankind.
\ni. An unholy greed for gain: bandit.
\nii. Cold-blooded desire to satisfy one’s own comfort a Samaritan.
\na pleasure. Priest and Levite
\n<\/strong>iii. A God-like desire to help others in need — the good
\nb. The victim of wrong regard for a fellowman.
\ni. The bandit regarded the man as a Prey to spoil and plunder. Hollywood:s sell of human lives.
\nii. Priest and Levite — an “annoyance.” (vexed them)
\niii. The Samaritan regarded him as a brother and an opportunity.
\nc. The victim of self-centered religion.
\ni. The Priest was purely professional.
\nii. The Levite was willing to know the injury, but unwilling to offer help.
\niii. The Samaritan used practical Christianity.<\/p>\n

Sherman Roger Tony – <\/strong>Foggery Champ of Idaho “Why didn’t you tell me before?”<\/p>\n

II: The Call to Do Three Great Ideas of Stewardship:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. The bandit’s idea “What’s yours is mine, if I can take it away from you.”
\n2. The Priest and Levite idea: “What’s mine is mnine and I don’t have to share it with anyone.”
\n3. The Samaritan’s idea: “What is mine belongs to God and I’m but a steward.”<\/p>\n

III: <\/strong>“Whatsoever thou spendest more<\/strong>.” verse 35. “The 2nd milk<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n

1. Here is the second milk.
\n2. The second Roman mile was not required (every Jewish day).
\n3. The great doctor and “three knots” may clink.<\/p>\n
