here is part of a sermon I gave on Sunday the 3rd of September which was predominantly evangelistic and also on Luke 4:14-21. There is material in here from Paul Mayo for which I am very grateful.
Let's not forget the way Jesus has been received by many people throughout history... In the passage from Luke we heard this..."news about him (that is Jesus) spread through the whole countryside" (v14), and this " everyone praised him" (v15), and this "The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on him" (v20).
Just as back then Jesus Christ has been listened to by many, many people. Currently 1.8 billion people in this world would profess to be followers of Jesus, that is more than the populations of
The UK, Thailand, Ethiopia, Iran, Turkey, Egypt, Vietnam, The Philippines, Germany, PAUSE
Mexico, Nigeria, France, Japan, Bangladesh, Russia, Brazil, and the USA, all put together.
