Scripture:  Luke 22:39-46

Coming out, He went to the Mount of Olives, as He was accustomed, and His disciples also followed Him. When He came to the place, He said to them, “Pray that you may not enter into temptation.” And He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and He knelt down and prayed, saying, “Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done.” Then an angel appeared to Him from heaven, strengthening Him. And being in agony, He prayed more earnestly. Then His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground. When He rose up from prayer, and had come to His disciples, He found them sleeping from sorrow. Then He said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray, lest you enter into temptation.”

Sermon:  ‘Not My Will….’ – Tomm Tice

1. Christ displays truly human emotion.

2. Christ utters a very earnest petition.

3. Christ triumphs by His total submission.

Catechism:  Westminster Shorter Catechism Question #75

What is forbidden in the eighth commandment?

The eight commandment forbiddeth whatsoever doth, or may, unjustly hinder our own, or our neighbor’s wealth or outward estate.

1 Proverbs 28:19 ff. He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread: but he that followeth after vain persons shall have poverty enough. A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent…. He that hasteth to be rich hath an evil eye, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him…. Whoso robbeth his father or his mother, and saith, It is no transgression; the same is the companion of a destroyer…. He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse. Ephesians 4:28a. Let him that stole steal no more. 2 Thessalonians 3:10. For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat. 1 Timothy 5:8. But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.
