    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 11, 2022
     | 1,798 views

    Is it harder to turn the other cheek, to offer something else when someone has taken something from us, to be generous, to be merciful and to go the extra mile?

    LOVING OUR ENEMIES Text: Luke 6: 26-38 Luk 6:27-38  "But I say to you that listen, Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,  (28)  bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you.  (29)  If anyone strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also; and ...read more

    Progress became a secular god, a new form of hope for secular man in the 19th century, a progress that would lead to freedom. It was not to be.

    Monday of 2nd Week in Lent The call of Jesus in Matthew, which we heard at Mass on Saturday, was to “be perfect, as the heavenly Father.” In Luke’s redaction we heard today, the call is to “be merciful, as the heavenly Father.” If we understand that the root meaning of perfection is ...read more

    I want to be Jesus' teacher's pet. I want to be His favorite pupil. This passage gives us the key to pleasing Jesus and becoming more like Him in my life. (Spoiler alert - it has to do with how I treat people I don't like)

    OPEN: A great scholar was once asked about a young man who was in his class. The person said, "So and so tells me that he was one of your students." The scholar just smiled sadly and said, "Well, he may have attended my lectures, but he was not one of my students.” What was that scholar saying? ...read more

     | 3,078 views

    Preaching and living a lifestyle conditioned by the precepts of the Gospel is not a particularly popular path, and may get you shunned, even exiled.

    This sermon encourages believers to deeply understand and embody God's love and mercy, extending it to all, including enemies, through forgiveness, generosity, and righteousness.

    Good morning, beloved. I want you to cast your minds back to the time when you first encountered the transforming power of God's love.

    Do Not Judge.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 31, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 754 views

    First, we must operate on ourselves, seeking out the sin that hinders us and leaving it with the Lord; and then, and only then, are we in a fit state to help the other.

    DO NOT JUDGE. Luke 6:36-42. “‘Ye all’ therefore be merciful, as your Father is merciful” (LUKE 6:36; cf. Romans 9:15). We are being called to be compassionate, to exercise grace towards those who are hostile to us. It was ‘when we were enemies’ that ‘we were reconciled to God by the death of ...read more

    Forgiven to Forgive: Passing On the Mercy We've Received Introduction: Beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, today we gather to delve into one of the most profound and transformative aspects of our faith: forgiveness. Forgiveness is not just a lofty ideal; it is a divine mandate and a path to ...read more

    The Golden Goal Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 7, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,175 views

    The "Golden Rule" is both simple and profound and sums up the lifestyle Christians should embrace. But what does this "Rule" mean to us, and how can we live it to its fullest?

    (Asking the audience) What Is Golden Rule? “Do unto others as you’d have them do unto you.” That’s a simple and yet powerful statement that has caught the imagination of the world, and it’s almost as if nobody (before Jesus) had ever thought about that! ILLUS: Several years ago, there was a ...read more

    The Lord Jesus Christ began His "sermon on the mount" by addressing the blessings His people possess. He continues His teachings, covering topics such as influence, the Law, behavior, and how to love one's enemies.

    Matthew 5:13-16: Jesus compared all true believers to salt, which was used as not only a flavoring but as a preservative against spoilage.

    Jesus' Sermon on the Mount concludes with warnings about hasty judgments and the assumption that the work you do for the LORD is not necessarily a sign that you are one of His followers.

    Matthew 7:1-5: The Process of Sound Judgment Judges render decisions in courts of law based upon evidence presented by advocates for both accused and accuser. He examines both sides of the arguments and their merit. He consults with both parties if need be as well as do research on similar ...read more

    Seventh Sunday In Ordinary Time, Year C -- The Word Nonviolent Can Be An Adjective, It Modifies How

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jan 20, 2025
     | 392 views

    Jesus is asking us today not so much as “how can I find a gracious God? But “How can I find God in my enemy?” And, how can we be children of God in real life without loving our enemies?

    The fictional Klingon language from Star Trek has no words for love. Of course, the Klingons were creatures of pure logic, not emotion. So, the closest words for “love” in their language were “honor” or “unhate.” That would be easy for us if we could define love simply as “unhating” others. ...read more
