How does Luke portray Jesus in his Gospel?
For Luke, Jesus is our Compassionate Savior. Luke's image of Jesus is presented as the compassionate Savior of the world, with love and compassion for all people, whether rich or poor, Jew or Gentile. He reaches out especially to poor, the marginalized, the oppressed, the women and the poor and outcast of society. Luke emphasizes divine mercy, depicting God as the Father who forgives his prodigal children with unbounded love. Meeting Jesus as the compassionate Savior draws us to imitate the Lord by approaching the Father in confident prayer. The story of the widow of Nain teaches us about Jesus' mercy to a grieving mother (Luke 7:11-17). Jesus says that the human person is one who does not depend on only food and other necessities for life but also relies on the Word of God (Luke 4:4). He also states how the human person is to be toward others. The human person is to show mercy to those who love (Him), and those who oppress (Him), everyone (Luke 6:36).
