Dear Theophilus: When What Was Meant for Good Is Weaponized
08 February 2026
Luke 13.18-36 Dear Theophilus: The Narrow Way Without a Narrow Mind
In Luke 13.18–35, Jesus teaches that the way to life is narrow—but he also warns against confusing a narrow way with a narrow mind. Speaking to people confident in their religious identity yet at risk of missing what God was doing, Jesus redirected their confidence toward true allegiance to God’s kingdom. This message explores how misplaced confidence, false security, and delayed response can keep us close to the kingdom without actually following Jesus—and invites us to realign our allegiance with him today.
