Text: Luke 11: 48-50

LIKE FATHER LIKE SON

1. There was a sad aspect of this proverbial saying.

a. The forefathers had killed the prophets of old.

b. The children in the present generation were not unlike their fathers.

i. They approved the deeds of their fathers (Luke 11:48).

ii. They built the tombs of those who were killed.

c. This was a dark and sinister aspect that needed to be noted.

i. They may not have actually said that they approved of their deeds.

ii. But they had not spoken against the lawless deeds of their forbears.

iii. Thus, there was tacit approval.

iv. The building of the tombs does not exonerate their fathers from guilt.

2. A predictive word given:

a. In this prediction, the wisdom of God would be borne out.

i. The “wisdom” is simply the truth of what the Lord Jesus said.

ii. Wickedness was in the hearts of both “fathers” and “sons”.

b. The Lord would send

i. Prophets Luke 11:49a

ii. Apostles Luke 11:49b

c. How would they be treated?

i. They would be killed. Luke 11:49c

ii. They would be persecuted. Luke 11:49d

3. The fulfilment of this word.

a. The Apostles were persecuted (Acts 8:1).

b. The Apostle James was killed (Acts 12:2).

4. Judgment of God

a. The guilt of murder of the prophets would be judged (Luke 11:50a).

b. The present generation that kills God’s servants would bear the full weight of their sin (Luke 11:50b).

有其父必有其子

c. 这是黑暗罪恶的一点
