00:00 [Music intro]
00:07 It has stood the test time, God's book,
00:13 the Bible, still relevant in today's complex world.
00:21 It Is Written, sharing hope around the globe.
00:36 I'm John Bradshaw, this is It Is Written.
00:39 Thanks for joining me.
00:40 Wesley Autrey was standing on the platform of a subway
00:43 station in New York.
00:45 With him were his two little daughters, aged 4 and 6.
00:48 Suddenly another man on that platform had a seizure, he
00:52 stumbled, and fell off the platform onto the subway
00:56 tracks.
00:58 And at that moment the lights of an oncoming train appeared
01:01 in the tunnel.
01:03 What was going to happen would be horrific.
01:07 But without hesitation, Wesley jumped down onto the
01:09 subway tracks - with the train approaching - and tried
01:12 to drag the man out of harms way.
01:15 Then he realized the train was approaching too fast and
01:18 there would be no time to get the man off the tracks.
01:21 But realizing there was a drainage trench between the
01:23 tracks, Wesley pushed the man into that gap and threw
01:27 himself on top of him.
01:29 Just seconds later the train rushed right over the top of
01:34 them, barely missing Wesley.
01:36 It was so close that the train left grease marks on
01:41 Wesley's knitted cap.
01:44 When the train came to a halt, Wesley called up to the
01:46 frightened onlookers on the platform.
01:49 "There are two little girls up there.
01:51 Let them know their Daddy is OK."
01:54 Instantly Wesley Autrey became a national hero.
01:57 Everyone was moved by his bravery and for the
01:59 compassion he showed a total stranger.
02:02 There was no logical reason for him to risk his life.
02:06 He had two small daughters up there to think about.
02:09 But a human being was in desperate need, and Wesley -
02:11 moved with compassion - did what he could to save the
02:14 man.
02:15 The press called him "The Subway Superman", the "Harlem
02:19 Hero."
02:21 But the headline in one newspaper described Wesley
02:23 Autrey in biblical terms.
02:26 It read, "Good Samaritan Saves Man on Subway Tracks."
02:32 You know, a couple of thousand years ago, Jesus
02:34 related an incident that was somewhat similar.
02:37 It's the parable of the Good Samaritan.
02:40 It is well known.
02:41 It's likely the basis of this story was a real incident.
02:44 It could be ...
02:45 could be that it was headline news and possibly some of the
02:49 people in the crowd listening to Jesus may have personally
02:52 known the characters in the story.
02:54 That's possible.
02:55 Today we're going to look at that story.
02:57 And we're going to take a close up look.
02:59 As a matter of fact, together we are going to go together
03:01 to Israel.
03:02 The parable of the Good Samaritan is set on the road
03:05 between Jerusalem and Jericho.
03:08 Today, part of that road is known as the Wadi Qelt, and I
03:10 visited that road to see what it was like - not just today,
03:14 but to get an idea of what it must have been like 2000
03:18 years ago when Jesus related that parable.
03:21 Being in that location caused me to reflect upon the story
03:23 of the Good Samaritan.
03:25 One thing you notice about the area is that it's a harsh
03:28 environment.
03:29 Rocky and arid and dry - and hot.
03:34 Really hot.
03:35 And it wasn't nearly the hottest time of year when I
03:37 visited.
03:38 What can we learn from the story of the Good Samaritan.
03:41 While I was walking in the area I met a young man riding
03:44 his bicycle along the road.
03:45 He told me he had been attacked by a pack of dogs
03:48 and had to fight them off.
03:50 And I thought about that when I was there.
03:53 What if a pack of dogs were to attack you right there -
03:56 where would you run?
04:00 [Music] You know, running
04:17 from a dog around here is one thing.
04:19 Don't think I haven't thought about this either, but what
04:23 would you do if you were set upon here by a gang of
04:25 thieves or robbers?
04:26 Not much you could do.
04:30 Jesus, in Luke 10 told a parable regarding a man who
04:36 had had that very experience and he set the parable on
04:39 this road, track, path, trail ...
04:44 whatever word you'd like to use.
04:46 He talked about a man who was walking to Jericho and this
04:49 was the way to Jericho.
04:50 Of course, there is no way at all to know just where this
04:54 happened, but it happened somewhere along this road and
04:56 you can imagine what it was like.
04:59 Here is what Jesus said: "A certain man went down from
05:03 Jerusalem to Jericho and fell among thieves who stripped
05:06 him of his clothing, wounded him and departed him, leaving
05:10 him half dead."
05:12 I can imagine that.
05:14 And if you get left for dead around here, it is not going
05:17 to be a pretty sight.
05:18 You wouldn't have a whole lot of hope.
05:22 And then we read this very interesting passage where
05:24 Jesus pretty well skewers the religious establishment
05:28 because he says ...
05:30 "Now by chance a certain priest came down that road
05:33 and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side."
05:36 Now, as you look at this road, there are wider bits
05:40 and narrower but it's not a freeway and if that priest
05:44 came by it's not like ..
05:46 I remember hearing the story for the first time, and
05:48 thinking well, he crossed the street.
05:50 There's not a street.
05:51 It's a trail.
05:52 It's a pathway.
05:53 The priest, who got out of the way who had been wounded
05:57 virtually had to step over him or step around him and
06:00 most likely it wasn't a matter of crossing a wide
06:04 place but maybe his robes, his flowing robes even
06:08 dragged over the poor fellow's half-dead body as he
06:11 went by so it's not like the priest could say "never saw
06:15 him."
06:16 The priest couldn't miss him and actually had to go to
06:19 some effort to avoid the man and then Jesus talks on
06:23 likewise a Levite.
06:25 When he arrived at the place, he came and looked and passed
06:29 by on the other side.
06:30 So, he saw something.
06:31 He said, "Ah, what's that?
06:32 I think I'll go and check it out."
06:34 And he came and he saw this fella and he realized ...
06:42 "Naaaa, not the sort of things I want to bother
06:44 getting my hands dirty with."
06:45 And he too went around the guy.
06:47 Then Jesus says, "There came by someone who was a
06:50 Samaritan."
06:53 One of these lower cast, lower class guys, the kinds
06:56 of people that the Israelites looked at like they were
06:58 dogs, treated like they were less than human, and he came
07:02 by.
07:03 And I want to think with you, now that we are in this
07:05 environment, about what the story really means.
07:08 The Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was,
07:11 and when he saw him, he had compassion.
07:14 So he went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring
07:18 on oil and wine and he set him on his own animal,
07:22 brought him to an Inn and took care of him.
07:26 The animal that he had most likely was a donkey and these
07:30 are just donkey trails.
07:31 You just walk at walking speed.
07:33 If I was in a hurry to get to Jericho from here, I'd be out
07:36 of luck.
07:37 If you went too fast, you are likely going to tip yourself
07:39 over and hurt yourself badly.
07:40 So this man found the wounded fella, the wounded man, he
07:44 refers to him as a man, we don't know what stripe he
07:46 was.
07:47 He put him on his animal.
07:48 I mean, look at this environment.
07:50 He went to some trouble to do this.
07:53 It wasn't easy.
07:54 He went out of his way and then he said: You know,
07:57 instead of just going to Jericho where I was going, I
08:00 think I'll go and find an Inn.
08:03 He may have taken him to Jericho for all we know, but
08:05 going to an Inn wasn't a matter of just going, driving
08:08 to the next freeway exit and pulling off at the Motel 6 or
08:11 The Hampton Inn and Suites, or whatever the case might
08:13 be.
08:14 He went out of his way and found a place and he said,
08:17 look after this man for me.
08:19 I'll even come back and make sure that I've given you
08:22 enough money, because if it takes more money that I've
08:24 left for you to look after this man, then I will come
08:27 back here and I will settle it Being in this place where
08:31 the story actually happened shines a whole new light on
08:36 the story of The Good Samaritan.
08:39 Here on the Jericho Road, the road where Jesus walked.
08:42 Jesus told the story to make us stop and think about what
08:46 it is to be compassionate.
08:47 You know, the story was preceded by a question that
08:52 was made: Who is my neighbor?"
08:55 Well, now we know.
08:57 And if a Samaritan who may or may not have been heading to
09:02 Jericho but he was going down this road, if a Samaritan can
09:06 treat a perfect stranger, as a matter of fact, an
09:09 imperfect stranger most likely, would that kind of
09:12 compassion and that kind of care ....
09:15 And it makes me stop and think while I am in this
09:17 harsh, stark environment, walking the road Jesus
09:22 walked, that perhaps, just perhaps, I might want to
09:27 think about treating people in the same way.
09:43 [Music] But is there more to the story of the Good
09:46 Samaritan?
09:47 Let's look further in just a moment.

10:14 This is It Is Written.
10:15 I'm John Bradshaw, thank you for joining me today.
10:18 Today, the story of the Good Samaritan.
10:21 Now to get from Jerusalem to Jericho today would take you
10:23 no more than an hour by car, less than an hour.
10:26 It's a distance of not quite 30 miles, and what's
10:29 interesting about that trip is that along the way you
10:32 descend about 3250 feet - 1000 meters or so.
10:37 That's how far down you go.
10:39 Now why did Jesus tell the story of the Good Samaritan
10:42 do you think?
10:43 Was it just because He wanted to share the lesson of
10:45 compassion?
10:47 No doubt that was part of it, but Jesus shared this story
10:50 in answer to a question.
10:53 And the answer the story provided spoke directly to
10:55 the needs of the hearts of His hearers - and it speaks
10:59 to us today.
11:00 A theologian had asked Jesus this question, he said, "What
11:04 shall I do to inherit eternal life?"
11:07 (Luke 10:25).
11:08 So what Jesus said in response - which includes the
11:11 story of the Good Samaritan - is to be understood in the
11:15 context of the subject of SALVATION.
11:18 What is the process of salvation?
11:21 A serious question.
11:22 A wrong answer could have eternal consequences!
11:26 Jesus responded by saying this.
11:28 You read it in Luke 10: "What is written in the law?
11:33 What is your reading of it?"
11:35 (Luke 10:26) When Jesus preached to the multitudes in
11:39 the Sermon on the Mount, he said "You have heard that it
11:42 was said."
11:43 Most of those in His audience that day couldn't read.
11:45 They had to rely on what they have heard which is why Jesus
11:48 said "You have heard."
11:50 But this man was learned, he could read.
11:52 Jesus asked him "What is your reading of the law?
11:57 Now this man knew his Bible.
11:59 He summarized the first four commandments by quoting Moses
12:03 in Deuteronomy 11:13.
12:04 Let's look at that.
12:06 "I command you this day, to love the LORD your God, and
12:10 to serve him with all your heart and with all your
12:13 soul."
12:14 For a summary of the last six commandments he referred to
12:17 Lev.
12:18 19:18 "You shall love your neighbor as yourself..."
12:22 His answer came easily.
12:26 This was something the lawyers, the theologians,
12:28 discussed among themselves.
12:30 Jesus said "You have answered rightly; do this and you will
12:35 live."
12:36 But there was another question also hotly discussed
12:38 among the lawyers: "How should one's neighbor be
12:43 defined?"
12:44 So this man snapped back "Who is my neighbor?"
12:47 To answer this question, Jesus told the story of the
12:50 Good Samaritan.
12:52 Looking at everything in context we see that this
12:54 parable isn't simply an appeal from Jesus to be more
12:57 compassionate as important as that is, and it is important.
13:01 The issue, however, is much bigger.
13:03 What is at stake here is the question of how to be saved.
13:07 The parable of the Good Samaritan is part of Jesus'
13:09 answer on how God saves us.
13:12 Now let's make sure we don't miss something important.
13:15 The question asked was, "Lord, What must I do to be
13:18 saved?"
13:19 On the answer to this question hinges our eternal
13:23 destiny.
13:24 And no one can give us a better answer to this
13:28 question than the Savior Himself.
13:31 Therefore, we need to listen carefully.
13:34 The answer our Lord gave is a radical answer.
13:36 Essentially, He said this: "Obeying the law is a vital
13:42 part of the salvation experience."
13:44 Now, we know that salvation is a gift that can't be
13:48 earned.
13:49 Paul said this in Romans 3:20, "By the deeds of the
13:55 law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight.
14:00 That's clear.
14:01 Galatians 3:11 let's read that: "But that no man is
14:04 justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident:
14:09 for, the just shall live by faith.
14:12 Again and again the New Testament proclaims that
14:14 salvation is by God's grace through faith.
14:18 (Ephesians 2:8, 9) "For by grace are ye saved through
14:20 faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of
14:23 God: Not of works, lest any man should boast."
14:27 (Ephesians 2:8, 9) The Bible says this in Romans 10: "That
14:32 if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and
14:34 believe in your heart that God has raised him from the
14:36 dead, you will be saved."
14:38 (Romans 10:9).
14:39 So what was Jesus saying when he told his hearers in the
14:42 story of the Good Samaritan?
14:44 Well for one thing, it's much the same as what He told the
14:48 Rich young Ruler.
14:49 If you want to be saved, if you want to live in the right
14:52 relationship with God, it's important that you keep God's
14:56 commandments.
14:57 Now - does saying that make a person a legalist?
15:04 Only if you want to call Jesus a legalist!
15:07 Salvation is definitely a gift from God.
15:09 And Jesus certainly is not suggesting that we begin
15:12 trying to earn salvation with our obedience and good deeds.
15:18 So how do you reconcile this?
15:19 How do you bring these two points together?
15:21 Jesus telling people to obey the commandments if they're
15:24 serious about salvation, and Paul saying that salvation
15:27 comes freely, by grace through faith?
15:32 We want to remember that salvation is a love affair.
15:37 It was initiated by God because, as the Bible says,
15:40 "God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son
15:44 that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have
15:48 eternal life."
15:49 (John 3:16) Salvation is the gift of God's love.
15:54 Sin estranged us from God.
15:57 To find His lost sheep Jesus left His Father's house and
16:01 condescended to be clothed with humanity.
16:04 He endured the brambles and thorns of Calvary.
16:07 He shed His blood, He endured the agony of the crucifixion,
16:11 in the darkest hour on the hill of Golgotha he cried
16:13 out, "My God, My God, why have you forsaken Me?"
16:19 The pain caused by this separation broke His heart
16:22 and caused His death.
16:24 But He found His lost sheep and all heaven rejoiced with
16:28 Him.
16:29 And now there is nothing He wants more than to have us
16:33 with Him forever.
16:35 In His High Priestly Prayer He had one passionate
16:38 request: "Father," Jesus prayed, "I desire that they
16:42 also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am."
16:47 (John 17:24) There is nothing Jesus wants more than to have
16:52 you and me with Him forever.
16:56 But God's offer isn't meaningful in any practical
16:59 way until the sinner responds to it.
17:02 What good will eternal life be to those who don't love
17:06 God?
17:07 People who haven't learned to love God wouldn't even be
17:10 happy in heaven!
17:11 They'd be miserable.
17:14 Because God loved us, we respond to His love by loving
17:19 Him in return.
17:21 The apostle John said "We love him, because he first
17:25 loved us.
17:26 (1 John 4:19) The primary reason why we should desire
17:31 to be saved is because we love Jesus so much, we
17:35 appreciate so greatly the love of God that we want to
17:38 spend eternity with Him.
17:40 And Jesus makes it very clear that our love for Him must be
17:43 supreme.
17:44 Remember what he said?
17:45 Let's read this together.
17:46 Here is what Jesus said: "He that loves father or mother
17:50 more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loves son or
17:54 daughter more than me is not worthy of me.
17:58 And he who does not take his cross, and follow after me,
18:02 is not worthy of me."
18:03 (Matthew 10:37, 38) Such a love for Jesus leads to
18:10 eternal life and this is what Jesus told the lawyer.
18:13 If you love God with all your heart, mind, soul and
18:15 strength, then He will save you.
18:18 And what is it that demonstrates this love?
18:21 Do you want to hear it: This is in 1 John 5: "For this is
18:27 the love of God that we keep His commandments."
18:32 (1 John 5:3) And Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love
18:37 me, keep my commandments."
18:39 Now notice he was not saying "If you love me then go ahead
18:43 and prove it by keeping my commandments.
18:46 Jesus was saying If you love me, something is going to
18:49 happen in your life.
18:50 It's an inevitability that you will keep my
18:52 commandments.
18:53 Those who were save won't have worked their way to
18:55 heaven.
18:56 But their obedience will have shown that they loved God,
18:59 they loved Jesus with all their hearts.
19:02 Jesus wasn't telling the lawyer that salvation is by
19:04 works.
19:05 He said "You confess that you must love the Lord with all
19:08 your heart if you want to be saved.
19:10 That is the right answer.
19:12 But, your love for God will be revealed by your obedience
19:15 to God's commandments."
19:18 But then Jesus takes it a step further.
19:20 I'll have more in just a moment.
19:25 In Matthew 4:4, the Word of God says, "It is written, man
19:29 shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that
19:32 proceeds from the mouth of God.
19:34 Every Word is a one minute Bible-based daily devotional

19:54 You'll be glad you did.
20:00 The concept of loving God is pretty easy to get your arms
20:03 around, isn't it?
20:04 That is, it's obvious God is good.
20:07 He gives us life, He pours out His blessings, we know He
20:11 is good...
20:12 Our problem is usually more often with those who are
20:14 closest to us.
20:17 You'll notice in the parable of the Good Samaritan, the
20:20 lawyer - who was actually a theologian, a doctor of the
20:22 law - asks Jesus a really interesting question.
20:27 Jesus affirmed him when he told Jesus that people ought
20:29 to love God and love their neighbor.
20:31 He got that from the writings of Moses.
20:34 But he said to Jesus, "Who is my neighbor?"
20:37 And you'll notice, the passage in Luke 10 says that
20:40 he asked Jesus this because he was "willing to justify
20:44 himself" (Luke 10:29).
20:47 The parable of the Good Samaritan challenged the
20:49 people listening to Jesus.
20:51 Because in the eyes of the Jews, there were no "good"
20:55 Samaritans.
20:56 They were all bad.
20:58 The worst insult a Jew could sling at the one he despised
21:00 was to call him a Samaritan.
21:02 Listen how they maligned Jesus.
21:04 "Do we not say rightly that You are a Samaritan and have
21:08 a demon."
21:09 (John 8:38) In their eyes no one could be lower than a
21:13 demon possessed Samaritan.
21:15 The woman at the well told Jesus this,"the Jews have no
21:18 dealings with the Samaritans."
21:21 (John 4:9 KJV) The shortest route between Jerusalem and
21:24 Galilee went through Samaria but many Jews were willing to
21:27 almost double the distance by crossing the Jordan and
21:30 travelling up the west bank up to the Sea of Galilee just
21:34 to avoid going through Samaria.
21:36 If just the shadow of a Samaritan fell on a Jew, he'd
21:39 feel morally unclean.
21:42 Yet here's Jesus telling these people that a Samaritan
21:45 was their neighbor.
21:47 In this parable Jesus drives home a powerful lesson home.
21:51 You can talk all you want about loving God, but the
21:54 truth is that your love for God is no stronger than your
21:58 love for your fellow man.
21:59 Your confession that you love God may be impressive, but
22:03 it's meaningless unless you love your neighbor as
22:06 yourself.
22:07 The Bible says this, in 1 John 4:20, 21: "If a man
22:14 says, I love God, and hate his brother, he is a liar:
22:18 for he that does not love his brother whom he has seen, how
22:21 can he love God whom he has not seen?
22:24 And this commandment we have from Him: That he who loves
22:28 God must love his brother also."
22:34 (1 John 4:20, 21) Jesus said in Luke 6:32 (NKJV), "But if
22:36 you love those who love you, what credit is that to you?
22:39 For even sinners love those who love them."
22:42 This is what makes this parable so powerful.
22:45 The Priest and the Levite by their offices, confessed to
22:48 love God.
22:50 They did service for Him.
22:51 Their lives were committed to Him.
22:54 They were recognized by the people as "spiritual".
22:56 But Jesus says their profession was meaningless.
22:58 It was only a show.
23:01 Those who truly love God will reveal their love for God by
23:04 how they treat others.
23:06 The Samaritan might have been despised, but he showed more
23:10 genuine love for God than did the Priest or the Levite.
23:13 Through this parable Jesus is speaking to us.
23:16 He asked Peter, "Do you love Me?"
23:19 He is still addressing this question to you and me.
23:21 We can claim to be Christians, or a good person,
23:24 show up in church, keep a Bible on our bookshelf, but
23:28 the truth is revealed when we find a neighbor next to us on
23:31 the road.
23:32 Whatever we do to one of the least, we do it to Jesus.
23:36 Too many people are Priests and Levites in the way they
23:39 treat others.
23:40 They confess to be saved...
23:41 but their confession is hollow.
23:45 There is no salvation for anybody as long as there is a
23:48 neighbor who needs help while we pass by on the other side,
23:52 unmoved.
23:53 And let's turn that over.
23:56 We shouldn't claim that our neighborly actions give
23:59 evidence that we are truly Christians if our lack of
24:04 obedience to God shows otherwise.
24:07 These are two sides of the same coin.
24:10 Salvation will reveal that you love God because
24:13 obedience to God is being shown, demonstrated in your
24:17 life through obedience to God's Commandments.
24:20 But on the otherwise, if all you have is obedience and no
24:24 love for your fellow human being, that obedience isn't
24:27 really worth two cents.
24:29 They go hand in hand.
24:32 Jesus shared the parable of the Good Samaritan to show us
24:36 this.

26:25 I'd like to pray with you now.
26:27 Let's pray together.
26:28 Our Father in heaven, we thank you for this wonderful
26:31 parable Jesus shared of the Good Samaritan.
26:34 And how through this simple story Jesus shows us that our
26:39 profession of faith in you is revealed in how we treat
26:42 others.
26:43 Give us grace to be Good Samaritans and at the same
26:47 time as Jesus spoke to that theologian, he made it very
26:51 clear that He calls us to be obedient and faithful and to
26:57 follow the Word of God and the precepts of heaven.
27:01 Lord, I think we can confess we're incapable of that.
27:04 We need you to come into our lives and do in us what we
27:08 cannot do ourselves.
27:10 Thank you that there is a Savior, one who transforms
27:14 and enables us to do what we couldn't do otherwise.
27:17 We thank you today and we pray in Jesus' name, amen.
27:41 Thank you for joining me today.
27:43 I look forward to seeing you again next time.
27:45 Until then, remember - It is written, man shall not live
27:49 by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the
27:53 mouth of God.
