The Law for Oaths and Vows
Matthew 5:33-37 Jesus teaches that people of the kingdom of God are to be people of truth.
Divorce in the Kingdom
Matthew 5:31-32 Divorce. How are we to think about divorce in the kingdom of God?
The Lustful Look
Matthew 5:27-30 How do we rightly interpret the law, and more how do we rightly apply the law to the life lived in grace?
Applying the Law
Matthew 5:21-26 Murder? What constitutes as breaking this law of God? Is it merely the act of caring out the deed? Jesus instructs on a proper view.
Unless Your Righteousness Exceeds the Pharisees’
Matthew 5:20 If we are not to relax even the least of the commandments, then what about the fourth commandment? Are we guilty of this? I mean if our righteousness is to exceed the Pharisees and the scribes righteousness, didn’t they take the Sabbath really seriously? What does this mean?
Relaxing The Least Commandment
Matthew 5:19 Are we free from the law, that is a question that need careful definition in its answer.
All Will Be Accomplished!
Matthew 5:18 Jesus is teaching on the authority of scripture and the fact that He is Himself the fulfillment of all that the Law and the Prophets wrote of. How seriously does Jesus take the scripture? If we follow Jesus, how seriously then should we take the scriptures?
The Righteous Shall Live By Faith
Romans 1:17, Romans 3:9-30 What is faith? What does it look like to “live by Faith”. Jesus has been raised, the end has been proven to us, faith dictates we live for that end trusting in God to bring about what God has declared He will bring about.
Justified by Faith: Peace With God
Romans 5:1-11 Good Friday Service 2020. The greatest need, and the most dangerous threat to any man is not the current circumstance, it is not Covid-19. The greatest danger is the second death, the fact that man will stand before a Holy God and being His enemy, that’s not going to go well. We need rescue!
The Law and the Prophets Fulfilled!
Matthew 5:17 Jesus denies any possibility that He doesn’t take the scriptures seriously, and goes further by claiming to be the very fulfillment of those scriptures.
