25-29. A certain teacher of the Law. Only Luke tells the Parable of the Good Samaritan, the Lost Son, and the Rich Man and Lazarus. Tried to trap Jesus. His motive was not right. What must I do? Jesus told people to turn from sin. This man did not think he had any sin. What do the Scriptures say? This is the place to find God's answers. You must love the Lord your God. This teacher knew the Scriptures and gave the correct answer. Do this and you will live. True worship to God includes "practicing what you preach." Jesus said: "Whoever loves me will obey my message" (John 14:23). Wanted to put himself in the right. He had a "guilty conscience." He does not love his fellow man, so, he asks: Who is my fellow man? Jesus gives a parable in answer.
