Spirituality: False and True

Luke 20:41-21:4

The Connection between theology and life ...

Who is God?

Who am I?

How should I live?

Jesus and the Religious Leaders     Luke 20:41-44

Defining their theology

Son of David: military leader with whom we will rule

Lord of All: sovereign master before whom we will bow

The Scribes: A Model of False Spirituality     Luke 20:45-47

Describing their lives

An inflated view of self

A selfish use of religious authority

A greater condemnation

The Widow: A Model of True Spirituality     Luke 21:1-4

Defining her theology: abandoned to God

Describing her life: great generosity

Applying these truths to life ...

Am I using God for self-advantage, or abandoning myself to His advantage?
