The Golden Thread Sermon notes - The Golden Thread
Luke 24:14-32
- Now that very day two of them were on their way to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.
- They were talking to each other about all the things that had happened.
- While they were talking and debating these things, Jesus himself approached and began to accompany them
- (but their eyes were kept from recognizing him).
- Then he said to them, “What are these matters you are discussing so intently as you walk along?” And they stood still, looking sad.
- Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered him, “Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who doesn’t know the things that have happened there in these days?”
- He said to them, “What things?” “The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene,” they replied, “a man who, with his powerful deeds and words, proved to be a prophet before God and all the people;
- and how our chief priests and rulers handed him over to be condemned to death, and crucified him.
- But we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. Not only this, but it is now the third day since these things happened.
- Furthermore, some women of our group amazed us. They were at the tomb early this morning,
- and when they did not find his body, they came back and said they had seen a vision of angels, who said he was alive.
- Then some of those who were with us went to the tomb, and found it just as the women had said, but they did not see him.”
- So he said to them, “You foolish people – how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!
- Wasn’t it necessary for the Christ to suffer these things and enter into his glory?”
- Then beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he interpreted to them the things written about himself in all the scriptures.
- So they approached the village where they were going. He acted as though he wanted to go farther,
- but they urged him, “Stay with us, because it is getting toward evening and the day is almost done.” So he went in to stay with them.
- When he had taken his place at the table with them, he took the bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them.
- At this point their eyes were opened and they recognized him. Then he vanished out of their sight.
- They said to each other, “Didn’t our hearts burn within us while he was speaking with us on the road, while he opened the scriptures to us?”
