About this listen

Luke 2:39-52 | Luke: Good News of Great Reversals | Matt Jackson

Luke records the only account of Jesus’ childhood years—his remaining behind in the temple after the annual Passover feast—in the passage we will look at on Sunday. It is during this account that the first words of Jesus are recorded. What does Jesus say in this moment? That God is his Father, a statement packed with life-changing significance. But Luke also tells us that Jesus grew and increased in wisdom and stature as a human. Young Jesus proclaims himself as the God-man, fully divine and fully human. As we will see throughout the study of Luke 2:39-52, Jesus’ life, ministry, and work hinges on the reality of his Sonship to the Father. Even more, Jesus’ first recorded words about himself can make all the difference in the world to you and me.
