Luke 16:1 - 16:18

Gospel of LukeSteve Gregg
In this discussion, Steve Gregg examines Luke 16:1-18, which includes the parable of the unjust steward. He suggests that the steward's actions were not necessarily criminal, but rather clever and resourceful, potentially even benefiting those who owed the master money. Gregg sees the subtext of this parable as emphasizing the importance of using worldly wealth for spiritual gain and eternal well-being. He also explores Jesus' teachings on divorce and remarriage, with Paul later providing additional guidance for believers who marry non-believers.
