Sermons on Matthew (Page 6)
Picking Up and Putting Down
We are often trying to carry too much. Here are three things we need to put down and three things we need to pick up.
Questions God Asks – Pt.4
Jesus asks, to what benefit is gaining the world? We must understand that Christianity is not a warm blanket, it is the Cross. Deny yourself, take up your cross and follow me, Jesus said. It is the only repair for our broken happiness-detector. Choose Jesus and be transformed.
Questions God Asks – Pt.3
Who do you think Jesus is? That is a question with an enormous impact. He is Lord and Savior.
Practice – Service
If we are thinking of serving others by trying harder, there we are missing something. Serving needs to be part of a spiritual discipline. Practice serving through your gifts and in serving sacrificially.
See What God Has Done – Home for the Holidays
Christmas is a real story about God fulfilling His promise and redeeming. Come join the family.
Imagine a Life Changed
Jesus didn’t just see a crowd he saw individuals with eternal worth. Can we see people in the same way and change a life?
Imagine a City Changed
God tells the Israelites to seek the welfare of the city when they were exiled to Babylon. For he knows the plans for them, to prosper them. In a similar way we should seek the welfare of out city. Though we are exiles in this land and a culture separate from this culture. Have an impact.
The Wisdom of Humility and Trust
Ecclesiastes – Pt.10
In this seemingly paradoxical life I commend joy with trust and peace in the Lord.
Faith and Money
Ecclesiastes – Pt.7
Money is a tool, don’t let it become an idol. Work hard, work honest and trust in the Lord to provide.
How to Approach God
Ecclesiastes – Pt.6
How should one approach God? Your words have weight, don’t take them lightly. Approach God with fear (reverence). Not as in “be scared”, but with great humility and respect.
True Justice
Ecclesiastes – Pt.4
Justice is a desire for Gods will. But this world is filled with injustice. Jesus will judge and make all things right.
Signs of Life – Kindness
It isn’t really about being kind, it is about being transformed into kindness. The fruit of the spirit are Gods traits. They develop together. Put on Jesus yoke of kindness and be transformed.
