All right, you know what? Before I even open it, I just want to express the deepest gratitude. Thank you, elf Dylan, for getting me this gift. I really appreciate it. Merry Christmas. You earned it. Oh, children's Bible stories for bedtime. This is sweet. When you can't fall asleep, just read one of those stories. Thank you. And even for my future kids, when I have kids, one day, I'll read this. Thank you, elf Dylan. That was a sweet gift. Clap it up for elf Dylan, if you're watching or listening. Thank you so much, Elf Dylan. I appreciate that. Thank you. Great gift. Thank you so much. Well, as always, we're reading the word of God. Today we're gonna be in Luke chapter 15. We got the parable of the lost sheep, lost coin, and the prodigal son. This one might be a quicker episode because I have done an episode on this exact passage before, but we will briefly go through it now. The tax collectors and the sinners were all drawing near to him, and the Pharisees and the scribes grumbled, saying, this man receives sinners and eats with them. So he told him this parable, what does it. He said, what, man of you having a hundred sheep, if he has lost one of them, does not leave the 99 in the open country and go after the one that is lost until he finds it. And when he has found it, he lays on his shoulders rejoicing. And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbor, saying to them, rejoice with me, for I found my sheep that was lost. Just so I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven overrun one sinner who repents, and over 99 righteous persons who need no repentance draw near to Jesus, who was the lost sheep? I was the lost sheep. You were, or are the lost sheep, depending on where you're at in your faith journey, draw near to Jesus. Sheep are stupid. They're in need of a shepherd. You and I are stupid without God and idiots. And we need Jesus in our life. This is the parable of the lost coin, or what woman having 10 silver coins, if she loses one coin, doesn't light a lamp and sweep the house and seek diligently until she finds it. When she has found it, she calls to her friends and neighbors, saying, rejoice with me, for I found the coin that I have lost. Just so. I tell you, there is joy before angels of God over one sinner who repents. Jesus looked for me because we were valuable to him. Jesus looked for you because you're valuable to him. And so we must treat Jesus in a celebratory manner when we have been found. And when others have been found and they repent the same way we would frantically lose our wallet or our car keys, and we run around the house, we try to find them, and bam, we find them. We celebrate and rejoice. Thank you, oh, stress relief, weight off my chest. Thank you, Jesus, that I have found my keys. And lastly, the parable of the prodigal son. There's a man that has two sons, and the father gives him a share of the property. He says, you're dead to me. Give me my inheritance before you're dead. Gives it to him and he squanders it. He just sells, spends it food, prostitutes, parties, and is so desperate and broke that he's willing to eat with the pigs. And pigs are deemed unclean that day. Can you imagine the son when he realizes he needs his father, trying to come up with a speech? Just say, look, I don't need to be your son anymore. I'll just be your servant. I'll be your slave. And as he's limping home, the father embraces him with a hug, says, get my robe. That robe. The Father's robe covering the Son. It represents the robe of righteousness. I get the ring and let's celebrate. For my son who was lost is now been found. But it's so funny, because in verse 25, we never think of the older son. Now his older son was in the field, and as he came and drew near to the house, he heard the music and dancing. He called to one of the servants and asked them what these things meant. And he said to him, your brother has come and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has received him back safe and sound. But he was angry and refused to go in. His father came out and entreated him. But he answered his father, look, these many years I've served you and I've never disobeyed your command. And yet you never gave me a young goat that I might celebrate with my friends. But when this son of yours came, who has devoured your property with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him. And he said to him, son, you are always with me, and all that is mine is yours. It was fitting to celebrate and be glad for this. Your brother was dead and is alive. He was lost and is found. When you don't see people as valuable to God, you then become the Pharisee. You think that you are deserving of things that you aren't deserving of. What is the price that God puts on your life? His own life? God gave his son to buy you back. He ransomed you. He set you free from captivity and found people. Find people. If you've been found by God, you are going to be motivated by love to go bring everyone else you can with you to the kingdom of God. So don't just sit in pride and say, well, I've done, I've been saved by God, and so no one else deserves the same thing, or I deserve to be celebrated. Your faith is in your works. Woe to you. Submit to God. Rely on him, trust on him, and you will see freedom in your life. Guys, I pray that Luke chapter 15 was an encouragement to you. We'll see you guys tomorrow for Luke chapter 16.
