    Hypocrisy

    "No More Hypocrites, Please!" Matthew 15:1-20 9/21/97 Intro: We all have many traditions that we keep. We bow our heads and close our eyes when we pray. It’s not the only way to pray.

    Let’s consider what was wrong with the Pharisees in order to find out what is sometimes wrong with us or what is lacking in our devotion to the Lord.

    INTRO.- Who’s hot and who’s not? It all depends on your viewpoint and what kind of TV news you watch. But if you have been watching the TV news at all you will get a glimpse of who’s hot and who’s not in the world of entertainment. Emmitt Smith of “Dancing with the Stars” fame is hot and ...read more

    When our need for conforming to outward observances exceeds our regard for inward spiritual reality we need to address our spiritual obsessive-compulsive disorder.

    Spiritual Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder - Matthew 15:1-20 1 Some Pharisees and teachers of religious law now arrived from Jerusalem to see Jesus. They asked him, 2 “Why do your disciples disobey our age-old tradition? For they ignore our tradition of ceremonial hand washing before they eat.” 3 ...read more

    Why waste time with negative pepole who are never going to make much progress? Because we follow a shepherd who will leave the ninety-nine grazing to pursue one lost sheep....

    ‘And Jesus went away from there and withdrew to the district of Tyre and Sidon.

    Jesus never liked bullies - still doesn’t either. Today we get a look at how Jesus dealt with the religious bullies of His time, the very people who would soon be His worst enemies.

    Have you ever heard somebody let somebody else “have it” and feel a sense of glee over it? Ever seen someone let a bully “have it” and felt a sense of awed relief that bordered on giddiness? I can remember an incident back in my early youth when a bully who had been picking on a friend of mine and ...read more

    Most of us are farsighted about sin—we see the sins of others but not our own.

    Opening illustration: “Could they not carry their own garbage this far?” I grumbled to Jay as I picked up empty bottles from the beach and tossed them into the trash bin less than 20 feet away. “Did leaving the beach a mess for others make them feel better about themselves? I sure hope these people ...read more

    So often, we Christians--like everyone else get caught up on the outward appearance of our physical bodies, our homes, our cars and our families. Even more dangerous than focusing on the "appearance" of these things, we quite often focus on the appearance of our Christianity.

    Have you ever met someone for the first time, and you were immediately struck by how nice-looking that person was? But after spending some time with them, all of a sudden, they didn’t look that good anymore? Not that their makeup got smeared or their toupee blew off; but once you talked to them and ...read more

    The heart of the LORD is about Mercy towards us, and as HE gives mercy, we are also to be merciful to others. We love, because HE first loved us. We forgive, because HE first forgave us. We have mercy because HE first was merciful to us.

    Jesus teaches that the things that defile a person are the things that come from the heart. This sermon offers four habits to be cultivated as means of grace to allow the Spirit room to root out the sin that lurks within our hearts.

    It Came From Within Introduction Growing up spending many days at my grandfather's home we watched television a lot. While I was a child of the 80s, we also watched old films. There were those that put my young mind in suspense with titles like The Creature From the Black Lagoon and It Came ...read more

    Looking at why the Pharisees were offended, and how the woman who was likened to a dog wasn't. Then thinking about why we are offended by the things of the world.

    In the name of the Father, Son and Holy spirit. Amen. Over the past few weeks we have spoken about the positive aspects of being sown and planting seed within life, and as I read this week’s Gospel, I wanted to just think about one other aspect, one which perhaps we don’t often like to consider, ...read more
