#soap # Luke 24 ## Title: The Word Changes Our Hearts ## Scripture: (Luke 24:32) They said to each other, “Didn’t our hearts burn within us while he was speaking with us on the road, while he was explaining the scriptures to us?” (NET) ## Observation: They said that as Jesus shared the Word and explained the Gospel, their hearts burned within them. This is why it is so important to not only read the Bible, but to work to understand it. Anyone can read the Bible. It takes effort to understand the claims it is making. When we begin to put the pieces together and understand the heart of God, it changes us forever. We begin to realize this plan is not just for the world. It is for us. He came to save you and me. ## Application: Take a moment to realize that the Bible is true. It is pointing each one of us to salvation. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for saving us.
