Luke 10:30-37 And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. [31] And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. [32] And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side. [33] But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him, [34] And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. [35] And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee. [36] Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves? [37] And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.
Acts Chapter 2 (Josh Coker) - 3.1.2026
In this message from Luke 10:25–37, Jesus responds to a lawyer who seeks to justify himself by asking, “Who is my neighbor?” Rather than presenting a plan of salvation, Christ exposes the heart of the question and illustrates what true obedience to the law looks like through the parable of the Good Samaritan.As Jesus is on His way to Jerusalem, He teaches that love toward God is inseparable from love toward others. The Samaritan's actions reveal compassion that flows from the Spirit, while the priest and Levite demonstrate that religious position and knowledge alone do not produce mercy.This sermon emphasizes that spiritual fruit cannot be manufactured by the flesh. Just as an apple tree cannot produce oranges, an unregenerate heart cannot produce the fruit of the Spirit. Doing good unto others is not the cause of life, but the evidence of it.Scripture Text: Luke 10:25–37Key Verse: Galatians 6:10Church: Vestavia Primitive Baptist ChurchService Date: January 4, 2026
In this New Year's Eve service, Pastor Chris McCool (Zion PBC) shares a message of hope and encouragement from Mark chapter 5. Focusing on the account of Jairus and his dying daughter, Brother Chris discusses "the difficulty of the delay"—the space we live in between the trials of this world and the fulfillment of God's promises. Whether you are facing personal loss, sickness, or the general frustrations of life, this sermon reminds us of Jesus' comforting words: "Be not afraid, only believe."
This sermon explores Paul's final exhortations to the church, teaching us how to maintain Christian unity, overcome worry, and experience the profound peace of God that passes all understanding. Learn how to stand firm in your faith and find true joy and satisfaction through a committed prayer life.Scripture: Philippians 4:1-9
