    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Nov 4, 2021
     | 1,558 views

    We as Christians should exhibit Christian behavior, which cannot be done without the help of Christ. Turning the other cheek is easier said than done.

    THE PRACTICE OF LOVING OUR ENEMIES Text: Matthew 5:38 - 48 Matthew 5:38-48  "You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.'  (39)  But I say to you, Do not resist an evildoer. But if anyone strikes you on the right cheek, turn the ...read more

    Love Beyond Limits Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 8, 2021
     | 4,500 views

    Just as it was in Jesus’ day, many have a perception of love, but it is not love as God commands. Much of what we see today described as love does not fit the biblical model for love.

    Love beyond Limits Matthew 5: 43-48 As we close out the fifth chapter of Matthew, we are getting close to the midway point of the great sermon Jesus preached. For the past several weeks we have considered various contrasts Jesus made regarding time honored traditions and the reality of what God ...read more

    Are you ruling your spirit? It takes more power to rule your own spirit than it does anything else in our life.

    I. The Meaning of the Word 1. It is a word that was used to describe a wild animal that had been domesticated. 2. Take a stallion that has never been ridden, wild, full of energy, strength, and spirit. You break him, domesticate him, he becomes meek. 3. You can put a saddle on him, put a bit in his ...read more

    God is always love, and I am to reflect him all the time, regardless of how people behave towards me.

    Once upon a time, long long ago, in a galaxy far far away, that passage from Matthew changed my life. Well, it wasn’t another galaxy, exactly, but it was certainly another world. And it certainly feels like a long time ago. I started working for the Pillsbury Company over 40 years ago. But this ...read more

    The Cross Has Enemies Series

    Contributed by Mike Lewis on Dec 27, 2022
     | 1,385 views

    Sergio’s enemy of the priest that turned him away became his inspiration to help others. Even the ones we see as representing Jesus can (at times) be an enemy. And today, our lesson is that The Cross Has Enemies.

    WELCOME & INTRODUCTION FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT Sergio Gutierrez Benitez was a kid growing up in a tough neighborhood of Mexico City in the 1950s. By age ten he’d already joined a gang, committed petty crimes, and started using drugs—marijuana at first, then harder drugs. Finally, after years ...read more

     | 2,526 views

    God loves us all equally, regardless of our family background. But what does the Bible say about favoritism within families? Join us today as we explore this topic in light of Romans 2:11, which teaches us that "God does not show favoritism."

    Introduction: I. Recognizing the Chains of Favoritism Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, it is a privilege to stand before you today and delve into a topic that affects us all—family favoritism. In our journey together through the Scriptures, we aim to gain a deeper understanding of God's ...read more

     | 1,144 views

    More pointers are given that help in times of injustice and stress and tribulation. We look at God in retribution and the handling of wicked people who become our enemies. We also look at how hymns can be helpful. God recompenses, not us, so don’t try!

     | 1,686 views

    The focus of this sermon is on Jesus' teaching on what the normal auto-response is to various situations in life, and contrasting it with what a Kingdom response would look like.

    We are continuing our series called The Story; God’s story as told through the people, places, and events of the Bible. As you may be aware, the last few weeks we have been focusing on the New Testament portion of the story. Specifically the story of Jesus. The ministry and the miracles of ...read more

    Matthew 5:43–48 continues Jesus' teaching on love and humility, a part of the Sermon on the Mount. After commanding believers not to seek revenge in the face of insults, Jesus expands the idea of love to include one's enemies.

    Sermon on the Mount - Matthew 5:43-48 (Loving Enemies) MATTHEW 5:43-48 43 You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven.

    Matthew 5:13-14 (Jesus Teaches about Salt and Light) If a seasoning has no flavor, it has no value. If Christians make no effort to affect the world around them, they are of little value to God.

     | 1,323 views

    “Now raise your hands if you have only one or two enemies.” And even fewer people raised their hands. “See,” says the priest, “most of us feel like we have enemies.”

    A priest is giving a homily like I am right now on “What loving your enemies and being ‘perfect’ mean.” “Now,” says the priest, “I’ll bet that many of us feel as if we have enemies in our lives. So, raise your hands if you have a few enemies.” And several people raise their hands.” “Now raise ...read more
