Difficult Passages: Reconcile the statements that John would be “in the
spirit and power of Elijah” (1:17; cf. Mat. 11:14; Mark 9:11–13) with John’s
denial that he was Elijah (John 1:21). Explain the difficulty involving the
time of Quirinius’s governorship (Luke 2:2). Why did the Spirit lead Jesus
into the place of temptation (4:1–2)? Explain why numerous statements in the
Sermon on the Mount are scattered throughout the book of Luke (e.g.,
6:20–23, 27–38. 41–49; 8:16; 11:1–4, 9–13, 33–36; 16:13, 17–18; et al.) |

Answering False
Doctrines: Does baptism “in fire” refer to the Pentecost “tongues of fire”
(3:16–17; cf. Acts 2:1–4)? Do Jesus’ several commands to tell no one of
His miracles or that He was the Christ constitute denials of His Deity
(Luke 5:14; 8:56; 9:21; et al.)? Did Jesus teach situation ethics in
defending His disciples for plucking and eating grain on the sabbath
(6:1–5)? Does Jesus’ command, "Forbid them not," indicate that we should
not oppose those who are in the denominations (9:49–50)? |

Difficult Passages:
Will there be degrees of eternal rewards and punishments (10:12–14;
12:47–48; 20:47)? Explain Jesus’ statement: I beheld Satan fallen as
lightning from heaven (10:18). What constituted/constitutes blasphemy
against the Holy Spirit? Is it possible to commit this sin today, and if
so, can it be forgiven (12:10)? Why is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit a
worse sin than speaking against the Son of Man (12:10)? |

Answering False
Doctrines: Is Luke’s use of “eye witnesses” and “ministers of the word”
comparable to the “Q Source” theories advanced by modernists (1:1–4)? Is
Mary the “Mother of God,” since she gave birth to the Son of God (1:32)?
Is the behavior of Anna in the temple a precedent for women to lead
prayers and/or preach in the presence of men (2:36–38)? Does the Lord
administer Holy Spirit baptism (either with or without miraculous
endowments) to all who are baptized for remission of sins (3:16)? |

Answering False
Doctrines: Did Jesus imply that He has some saved and faithful people who
are not in His church (9:49–50)? Does Jesus’ statement about coming out of
“prison” upon paying the “last mite” teach or imply the Roman Catholic
doctrine of purgatory (12:58–59)? Does Jesus’ casting the merchants from
the temple imply that the sale of such things as tapes and books should
not be allowed on church property (19:45)? |

Difficult Passages:
Did Jesus commend dishonesty in the parable of the unrighteous steward
(16:1–9)? Explain the apparent discrepancies between the accounts of Luke
(18:35–43), Matthew (20:29–34), and Mark (10:46–52) (departing/entering
Jericho, one/two blind men). Does Jesus’ Discourse in 17:20–37 refer to
the destruction of Jerusalem, as does the one in 21:5–36? What is the
meaning of "until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled" (21:24)? |

Difficult
Passages: Why did John doubt the identity of Jesus as the Christ
(7:18–20)? Why were the apostles unable to cast out a demon on one
occasion (9:40)? Who were those who were casting out demons, but who
“followed not with” the apostles (9:49–50)? Who were these “seventy
others” whom the Lord commissioned (10:1)? |

Answering False
Doctrines: Does Jesus’ receiving and touching the children authorize “baby
blessings” in our worship assemblies (18:15–17)? Did Jesus deny His Deity
or His sinless perfection in His conversation with the rich young ruler
(18:18–19)? Does Jesus’ rebuke of the apostles’ ambition forbid Scriptural
elderships in His church from exercising authority (22:24–27)? Does Jesus’
promise to the thief on the cross serve as a precedent for anyone’s
salvation apart from baptism (23:43)? |
