Outline

  1. Thesis: We are to emulate the compassion of the Good Samaritan by actively seeking out opportunities to serve others in need. Lutheran

    Introduction: Jesus teaches us the importance of compassion through the parable of the Good Samaritan.

    1. The lawyer's question prompts Jesus to illustrate love for our neighbor as central to faith (Luke 10:25-29). A. The question "Who is my neighbor?" reveals a desire to justify oneself rather than seeking to extend love. B. Jesus' parable challenges us to see all people as our neighbors, deserving of compassion. 2. The actions of the priest and Levite contrast sharply with the compassion of the Samaritan (Luke 10:30-35). A. The priest and Levite's refusal to help highlights the failure of religious duty void of love. B. The Samaritan's sacrificial compassion exemplifies the love we are called to show others. 3. Jesus calls us to "go and do likewise," emphasizing active, selfless compassion (Luke 10:36-37). A. This call to action requires us to look beyond social, cultural, and religious boundaries. B. Being Good Samaritans today means prioritizing mercy and service over personal convenience.

    Conclusion: As followers of Christ, we must look for opportunities to serve those in need genuinely.

Let’s commit to letting compassion guide our actions daily, trusting in God's grace as we serve.
