Sermon Skeleton
ESV Luke 10:25 And behold, a lawyer stood up to put him to the test, saying, "Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" 26 He said to him, "What is written in the Law? How do you read it?" 27 And he answered, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself." 28 And he said to him, "You have answered correctly; do this, and you will live." 29 But he, desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, "And who is my neighbor?" 30 Jesus replied, "A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who stripped him and beat him and departed, leaving him half dead. 31 Now by chance a priest was going down that road, and when he saw him he passed by on the other side. 32 So likewise a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. 33 But a Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was, and when he saw him, he had compassion. 34 He went to him and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he set him on his own animal and brought him to an inn and took care of him. 35 And the next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, 'Take care of him, and whatever more you spend, I will repay you when I come back.' 36 Which of these three, do you think, proved to be a neighbor to the man who fell among the robbers?" 37 He said, "The one who showed him mercy." And Jesus said to him, "You go, and do likewise."

Great work preacher, you are most assuredly one who cuts it straight.
Narratives are a challenge for me in terms of three point sermons, but you put together a great three-point outline.
God be praised for your commitment to studying and heralding His word!!!
By the way, I like the new layout.

Ron, that is kind of a rhetorical question, because love has everything to do it. It was love that put put him on the cross, and love that kept him there. And it is that undying, unfailing love today that keeps us the apple of his eye.
Also, belated Happy Anniversary to you and Jaime, from Myssee and myself
Great Outline Revun!!
I just have one question. Where is the close Revun!!!!
