Heart Burn

You every had heartburn? (preach)

Now, has your heart ever burned? (preach)

Summarize the text.

1. He Shows Up

Walking with Jesus. This is the life of a disciple.

When we can’t see him

They walked with Jesus on the road to Emmaus, but they were also blinded to who he really was. They were kept from seeing who he was. This part is difficult for me as a bible reader and expositor. Because they could have been kept from seeing him by God, or they could have been kept from seeing him because of their unbelief.

When we are down

They Stopped and then looked sad.

When we don’t understand

They knew everything, but understood nothing.

2. He Opens Scripture

The beginning of Him opening the scripture is a rebuke of foolishness and unbelief. You can understand what the scriptures say about Jesus because they were foolish and unbelieving.

3. He Reveals Himself

They get close to the village and Jesus pretends to go further to test their neighborly love. They eat with him.

The reminder of what he had done.
