“Then he said unto them, O fools and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken.”
—Luke 24:25
Probably some of you think that this is a most unsuitable title for a servant of God to give to his sermon, and yet I make no apology whatever for it. It fits exactly my subject for tonight: it expresses accurately what I am going to speak about: and—what is far more to the point—it epitomizes our text: “Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken.”
Those words were spoken by Christ on the day of His resurrection: spoken not to worldlings but to Christians. That which occasioned them was this. The disciples to whom He was speaking were lopsided in their theology: they believed a certain part of God’s truth and they refused to believe another part of the truth that did not suit them; they believed some Scriptures but they did not believe all that the prophets had spoken…

Powerful sermon
Theology here is well-researched and biblically sound. Better than most preaching you’ll hear in the 21st century, in my opinion! May the Holy Spirit continue to guide us into all truth.
Truly thought provoking.
