THE GOSPEL OF LUKE REVEALS MANY OF JESUS' TEACHINGS NOT FOUND ELSEWHERE IN THE NEW TESTAMENT!
THESE TEACHINGS INCLUDE LETTING THE DEAD BURY THE DEAD (LUKE 9:57 - 62), THE FATHER GIVING JESUS ALL THINGS (10:21 - 24), AND AN OUTLINE ON HOW TO PRAY (11:1 - 4). OTHERS ARE THAT DEMON POSSESSION CAN BECOME WORSE (11:24 - 26), JONAH IS THE ONLY SIGN GIVEN TO PROVE WHO HE WAS (VERSES 29 - 32), AND THAT CHRISTIANS SHOULD LET THEIR LIGHT SHINE (VERSES 33 - 36).
LUKE ALSO RECORDS JESUS' WARNING TO THE PHARISEES AND SCRIBES (LUKE 11:37 - 54), HIS TEACHING ON THE UNPARDONABLE SIN (12:8 - 10), AND THAT GOD WILL TAKE CARE OF US (VERSES 22 - 34).
LUKE ALSO REVEALS WE SHOULD ALWAYS BE READY FOR THE LORD'S RETURN (LUKE 12:35 - 48), THAT JESUS CAME TO BRING DIVISION (VERSES 49 - 53) AND THAT TIME AND CHANCE CAN HAPPEN TO ANYONE (13:1 - 5).
* RECORDING THE LAST WORDS *
LUKE IS ALSO THE ONLY GOSPEL WRITER WHO RECORDED THE FOLLOWING PHRASES JESUS SPOKE WHEN HE WAS BEING CRUCIFIED.
"THEN JESUS SAID, 'FATHER, FORGIVE THEM, FOR THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING.'" (LUKE 23:34).
"AND JESUS SAID TO HIM (A CRUCIFIED THIEF NEXT TO HIM) 'TRULY, I TELL YOU TODAY, YOU SHALL BE WITH ME IN PARADISE.'" (LUKE 23:43).
"AND AFTER CRYING OUT WITH A LOUD VOICE, JESUS SAID, 'FATHER, INTO YOUR HANDS I COMMIT MY SPIRIT.'" (LUKE 23:46).
