Christ Insight

Based on:  Luke 10:25-37

Normally, when you come to church you expect to hear a message of comfort.  You have had to endure the suffering and hardships that this world throws at you and you want to hear that God still loves you.  Today as we look at the story of the Good Samaritan, we look at the person to whom Jesus told that story and why Jesus told that story.  We realize that this story is not intended to comfort.  These words tell us how we fail to love our neighbor.  These words tell us that we cannot love our way to heaven – we cannot by loving our neighbor get ourselves into heaven.
