Text:  Luke 6:1-45

Introduction:  Verses 1-11are you a slave of rules or a sower of righteousness?                                    

Three signs that the spirit of God is producing the fruit of righteousness in your life—

#1  When you value God's will more than the world's comfort—verses 17-26.

 

 

       

#2  When you can act lovingly toward those your heart wants to hate—

       verses 27-36.

 

 

       

#3  When you can stay focused on your own failures in the face of the failures of

       others—verses 37-42.

 

      

 

 

Conclusion:  Verses 43-45—what you cultivate in your heart will overflow in your

                          life.
