    Jesus’ warnings about persecution were extremely earnest. If we are not prepared ahead of time, we will not be able to endure and remain faithful when serious persecution comes. This message will show you how to prepare.

    Matthew 5:1-12 Now when he saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down.

    Salt had a lot of uses in the ancient world. Which one of them did Jesus have in mind when he used the analogy of salt and light? This message will give you both insight and motivation on how to be a good witness at work and in the world.

    Matthew 5:13-19 "You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again?

    Matthew 5:13-16 "You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again?

     | 2,619 views

    We all know that we should live for the glory of God every moment of every day. But how is that done? How can you eat a snack or drive to work or do the laundry or answer phone in ways that glory God?

    Christ And The Law - Matthew 5:17-18 Series

    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Jul 20, 2024
     | 730 views

    Critics often accuse Christians of picking and choosing which parts of the Old Testament we consider binding today. Why do we appeal to the prohibition on homosexuality, and yet we don’t put an incorrigible child to death by stoning?

    Matthew 5:17 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until ...read more

    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Jul 27, 2024
     | 703 views

    How do you know what parts of the Old Testament law apply to you today? Why do we still obey the law prohibiting adultery but not the laws concerning stoning certain people to death?

    Matthew 5:17 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until ...read more

    Kingdom Greatness - Matthew 5:19 Series

    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Aug 2, 2024
     | 724 views

    People who seek glory and honor in this world are called megalomaniacs. If that’s such a bad thing in this world, why does Jesus want us to seek greatness in the kingdom? Is greatness in the kingdom ever a motivating factor for things you do?

    Matthew 5:17 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until ...read more

    The Greater Righteousness - Matthew 5:20-21 Series

    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Aug 3, 2024
     | 861 views

    How can Jesus say anger is equivalent to murder? Killing a human being has such greater consequences and is so much more extreme. This message will show how the two sins have the same DNA and will expose how even our best efforts to obey God’s Word can degenerate into legalism.

    Matthew 5:19-26 Anyone who breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I tell you that unless your righteousness ...read more

     | 705 views

    What constitutes a lustful look? Is it adultery every time a man looks at an attractive woman and likes what he sees?We know it is not a sin to be tempted, and yet it is sin to have certain desires, so where do you cross the line into sin?

    Matthew 5:27-30 "You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.' 28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away.

     | 766 views

    The threat Jesus warns of here is being thrown into hell. For a lustful look? How do we reconcile that with passages that assure us that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ?

    Matthew 5:27-30 "You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.' 28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away.

    Amputation 101 - Matthew 5:29-30 (Contd) Series

    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Aug 14, 2024
     | 401 views

    The key to persuading your heart to fling sin away is to become convinced that nearness to God would be more satisfying than that sin. But what do you do when the sin brings intense pleasure and the last few times you sought God in prayer or Scripture it was boring?

    Matthew 5:27-30 "You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.' 28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away.

     | 385 views

    In this message you will learn how to fight sin in a way that is not burdensome, so that the Christian life is a life of doing what you want, rather than a life of resisting what you want.

    Matthew 5:27-30 "You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.' 28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away.

    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Aug 16, 2024
     | 1,046 views

    The two ways to commit adultery are to look at another woman or divorce, which shows the two sides of love (delight and commitment).

    Matthew 5:31-32 "It has been said, 'Anyone who divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce.' 32 But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, causes her to become an adulteress, and anyone who marries the divorced woman commits ...read more

     | 658 views

    Most of this message is devoted to explaining the meaning of “the exception clause” for divorce (“except for marital unfaithfulness”).

    Matthew 5:31-32 "It has been said, 'Anyone who divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce.' 32 But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, causes her to become an adulteress, and anyone who marries the divorced woman commits ...read more
