Luke 6:39-45 | Steve Bice | The Humble Care of a Disciple of Jesus

Speaker: Steve Bice Series: The Gospel According to Luke Topic: Discipleship Scripture: Luke 6:39–45

“He also told them a parable: “Can a blind man lead a blind man? Will they not both fall into a pit? A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone when he is fully trained will be like his teacher. Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take out the speck that is in your eye,’ when you yourself do not see the log that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that is in your brother’s eye. ¶“For no good tree bears bad fruit, nor again does a bad tree bear good fruit, for each tree is known by its own fruit. For figs are not gathered from thornbushes, nor are grapes picked from a bramble bush. The good person out of the good treasure of his heart produces good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure produces evil, for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.” (Luke 6:39–45 ESV)

“Y les decía una parábola: ¿Acaso puede un ciego guiar a otro ciego? ¿No caerán ambos en el hoyo? El discípulo no es superior a su maestro; mas todo el que fuere perfeccionado, será como su maestro. ¿Por qué miras la paja que está en el ojo de tu hermano, y no echas de ver la viga que está en tu propio ojo? ¿O cómo puedes decir a tu hermano: Hermano, déjame sacar la paja que está en tu ojo, no mirando tú la viga que está en el ojo tuyo? Hipócrita, saca primero la viga de tu propio ojo, y entonces verás bien para sacar la paja que está en el ojo de tu hermano. ¶No es buen árbol el que da malos frutos, ni árbol malo el que da buen fruto. Porque cada árbol se conoce por su fruto; pues no se cosechan higos de los espinos, ni de las zarzas se vendimian uvas. El hombre bueno, del buen tesoro de su corazón saca lo bueno; y el hombre malo, del mal tesoro de su corazón saca lo malo; porque de la abundancia del corazón habla la boca.” (Luke 6:39–45 RVR60)
