Luke writes about numerous miracles and parables of Jesus. A miracle is an event that happens that we cannot explain. Jesus uses miracles to demonstrate the love and power of the Father and to prove that He is the Son of God. Parables are stories Jesus tells to help us understand something about God or how we should live. Luke records almost 20 of Jesus’ miracles and 24 of his parables. In today’s Top Ten List, we examine five miracles and five parables that are not recorded in any of the other gospels. Scriptures referenced include Luke 1:1-3; Luke 5:1-8; Luke 7:11-17; Luke 13:10-17; Luke 14:1-6; Luke 17:11-19; Luke 10:30-37; Luke 11:5-8; Luke 14:7-11; Luke 16:1-9; and Luke 18:2-8.
