Please explain Luke 16:1-12...I don't understand the parable of unrighteous steward. Is there any commentary or materials?
Does the verse Luke 9:62 talk about backsliders in the tense of they were never saved?
Last Sunday my pastor started teaching the book of Luke. He taught that Luke was a Gentile. I have a hard time believing this. Was Luke a Gentile?
In Mark 9:11-13 it is written: "And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first come? And he answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first, and restoreth all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at nought. But I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done unto him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him. Verse 13 says "as it is written of him". Now, where is it written?
Why did Jesus tell Mary not to touch him since he had not ascended to his Father? When did he ascend? Did not he invite Thomas to thrust his hand in his side? I guess I'm looking for the chronological order. Also when did Jesus present the blood to the father? Was it the literal blood that came from his body on the cross?
