Sixth Sunday after Epiphany
Sermon Text: Luke 6:17-26
"[17] And he came down with them and stood on a level place, with a great crowd of his disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem and the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon, [18] who came to hear him and to be healed of their diseases. And those who were troubled with unclean spirits were cured. [19] And all the crowd sought to touch him, for power came out from him and healed them all. [20] And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said: ‘Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. [21] ‘Blessed are you who are hungry now, for you shall be satisfied. ‘Blessed are you who weep now, for you shall laugh. [22] ‘Blessed are you when people hate you and when they exclude you and revile you and spurn your name as evil, on account of the Son of Man! [23] Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven; for so their fathers did to the prophets. [24] ‘But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation. [25] ‘Woe to you who are full now, for you shall be hungry. ‘Woe to you who laugh now, for you shall mourn and weep. [26] ‘Woe to you, when all people speak well of you, for so their fathers did to the false prophets."
