7 Miles from Suddenly - Pastor Micah Pelkey

Luke 24

1 - On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb.

2 - They found the stone rolled away from the tomb,

3 - but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.

4 - While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them.

5 - In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, "Why do you look for the living among the dead?"...

6 - He is not here; he has risen! 'Remember how he told you', while he was still with you in Galilee:

7 - 'The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.'"

8 - Then 'they remembered' his words.

9 - When they came back from the tomb, they told all these things to the Eleven and to all the others.

10 - It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the others with them who told this to the apostles.

11 - But they did not believe the women, because their words seemed to them like nonsense.

13 - Now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.

14 - They were talking with each other about everything that had happened.

15 - As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked along with them;

16 - but they were kept from recognizing him.

17 - He asked them, "What are you discussing together as you walk along?"  They stood still, their faces downcast.

18 - One of them, named Cleopas, asked him, "Are you the only one visiting Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?"

31 - Then their eyes were opened and they recognizedhim, and he disappeared from their sight.

32 - They asked each other, "Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?"

33 - The got up and returned at once to Jerusalem...

Point #1 - Are you looking for God in the wrong places?

Point #2 - Downcast Discussions KJV - 17 And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have ont to another, as ye walk, and are sad?

Point #3 - Does the talk of Jerusalem drown out the words of Jesus?

Point #4 - Open Eyes & Burning

Point #5 - Get Up & Go Back
