Sermon Notes
The Authority of Jesus ~ Luke 4:31-44

- Jesus has authority over every ailment you will face (4:31-41)
- Over demons and unclean spirits (4:33-37, 41)
- Over various illnesses and diseases (4:38-40)
- These representing all ailments
- His authority is shown through his words (4:31-32)
- Jesus’ greatest work in your life is the gift of the gospel (4:42-44)
- Jesus healed during his 3-year ministry; but he came primarily to preach

- The gospel gives the solution to everything that ails us, because it leads us to the One who died on the cross and rose from the dead to bring an end to our sin
