Matthew Henry's Commentary on Luke 12:55

Commentary on Luke 12:54-59

(Read Luke 12:54-59)

Christ would have the people to be as wise in the concerns of their souls as they are in outward affairs. Let them hasten to obtain peace with God before it is too late. If any man has found that God has set himself against him concerning his sins, let him apply to him as God in Christ reconciling the world to himself. While we are alive, we are in the way, and now is our time.
