Luke 12:1 - 12:34

Gospel of LukeSteve Gregg
In this segment, Steve Gregg reflects on Luke 12:1-34, where Jesus warns against hypocrisy and encourages his followers to have the right attitude towards their faith. Gregg notes that the Greek word for "hypocrite" is simply transliterated in English and means someone who pretends to be something they are not. Jesus warns that those who try to maintain a reputation of superiority will eventually be exposed, but those who fear God and remain conscientious will ultimately be rewarded. Gregg emphasizes that Jesus encourages his followers to have the right attitude and not be afraid to stand up for their beliefs, even in the face of persecution.
