Our Lord Jesus Christ Dominion: Over Sea, Land, Diseases or Death

Our Lord Jesus Christ Dominion: Over Sea, Land, Diseases or Death

St. Luke Evangelist Doctor Luke

1.The people flocked about him; they showed respect to his preaching, with some rudeness to his person, which was very excusable, for they pressed upon him. Some would reckon this a discredit to him, to be thus cried up by the vulgar, when none of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed in him; but he reckoned it an honor to him, for their souls were as precious as the souls of the grandees, and it is his aim to bring not so much the mighty as the many sons to God.
2.Our Lord Jesus Christ intended to show his dominion in the seas as well as on the dry land, over its wealth as over its waves. Thus he would show that he was that Son of man under whose feet all things were put, and particularly the fish of the sea and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the sea. He intended hereby to confirm the doctrine he had just now preached out of Peter’s ship.
3."Thou shalt both see and do greater things than these; fear not; let not this astonish thee; be not afraid that, after having done thee this honor, it is so great that I shall never do thee more; no, henceforth thou shalt catch men, by enclosing them in the gospel net, and that shall be a greater instance of the Redeemer’s power, and his favor to thee, than this is; that shall be a more astonishing miracle, and infinitely more advantageous than this.’’
4."Thou shalt both see and do greater things than these; fear not; let not this astonish thee; be not afraid that, after having done thee this honor, it is so great that I shall never do thee more; no, henceforth thou shalt catch men, by enclosing them in the gospel net, and that shall be a greater instance of the Redeemer’s power, and his favor to thee, than this is; that shall be a more astonishing miracle, and infinitely more advantageous than this.’’
5.They sat by as spectators, censors, and spies, to pick up something on which to ground a reproach or accusation. How many are there in the midst of our assemblies, where the gospel is preached, that do not sit under the word, but sit by! It is to them as a tale that is told them, not as a message that is sent them; they are willing that we should preach before them, not that we should preachto them.
6.This man is said to be full of leprosy; he had that distemper in a high degree, which the more fitly represents our natural pollution by sin; we are full of that leprosy, from the crown of the head to the sole of the foot there is no soundness in us.
7.A particular account of the cure of the man sick of the palsy, which was related much as it is here by both the foregoing evangelists: let us therefore only observe in short, The doctrines that are taught us and confirmed to us by the story of this cure. That sin is the fountain of all sickness, and the forgiveness of sin is the only foundation upon which a recovery from sickness can comfortably be built.
8.Our Lord Jesus Christ undertakes to be the Physician of souls distempered by sin, and ready to die of the distemper —that he has a particular regard to the sick, to sinners as his patients, convinced awakened sinners, that see their need of the Physician—that he came to call sinners, the worst of sinners, to repentance, and to assure them of pardon, upon repentance
