The Healing Power of Christ
As we navigate our way through Matthew 8, Matthew is revealing who the Messiah is. And what we are seeing, is the power of God to heal all disease flowing out of the life of Jesus. As we grow in our understanding of who He is and what He can do, we must ask, how now should we live?
Two Types of Religions
Closing out our study on the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus reveals there are only two types of religions, one has the power to save and the other has the power to deceive and to condemn. We can be mistaken on a lot of different subjects in life, but one subject we need absolute clarity on is which religious expression saves.
Beware of False Prophets
The number one sign concerning the second coming of Christ is the increase of false teachers. Whenever the last days is mentioned, the subject of false teachers is brought up. Join us this week as we hear Christ, for the first time, deal with this subject in the Gospel of Matthew.
When to Judge
Arriving at Matthew chapter 7, we come to an often-misapplied Scripture that deals with passing judgment on others. As we will discover Christ is not prohibiting us from making judgment calls but wanting us to understand what must happen in us first. What is the Lord wanting to do in our lives before we exercise judgment upon others?
Do Not Worry
The next section of the Sermon on the mount that we come to focuses on our trust in God. Jesus gives us 6 reasons why it’s both right and logical to place our trust in God in every season of life. Join us as Christ lays out an irrefutable argument for trusting in God.
Storing up Treasure
We come to that part of the Sermon on the Mount where Jesus now talks about the follower of Christ’s relationship with money. Christ makes it clear that if His followers allow this area to get out of balance, it will create problems in almost every other part of their relationship with Him. Join us as we seek to understand what our relationship with money is to look like.
The Lord’s Prayer
Making our way through the Sermon on the Mount, Christ has informed us that His followers will be a people of prayer. We might ask how do we pray and what do we pray? The answers to those questions are now given as we learn about prayer from the master Himself.
What does a Mature Follower of Christ Do?
Many people have many different ideas on what constitutes a mature follower of Christ. Different Churches define spirituality in a variety of ways. But what makes Matthew chapter six so important, is its Christ’s description of what will be seen in a spiritual person’s life. Join us as we explore Matthew 6:1-8, to discover what do spiritual people do.
The Lifestyle of the Disciple
Continuing in our study of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus begins to lay out how impossible it is for us to live the life that’s required for the follower of Christ. Join us as we not only look at the requirements, but we will also see how it’s possible to live the impossible life of the disciple.
