    You Are The Salt Of The Earth Series

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Jun 23, 2014
     | 4,892 views

    Be careful, O Christian, of what you are eating and what you are offering to others to eat.

    You Are the Salt of the Earth Matthew 5:13 Introduction Last week, we saw that the Beatitudes of Jesus were not the “be happy attitudes” of Robert Schuller. What Jesus says here is far more profound that the shallow interpretation that Schuller offers. Schuler gives advice which might provide ...read more

    You Are The Light Of The World Series

     | 5,245 views

    Isn't Jesus "the" light of the world? Why does Jesus call us the same?

    You Are the Light of the World Matthew 5:14-16 Like the previous verse concerning the believer being the “salt of the earth”, verse 14 begins with the emphatic “you”. This means that the true disciples of Jesus who hears His words and puts them into practice stands in a unique position as “the ...read more

    Light Of The World

    Contributed by Peter Adigizi David on Nov 8, 2013
     | 3,911 views

    INTRODUCTION: Light is a very important aspect of life, the absence of which speaks of dullness, chaos, confusion. No wonder at the very beginning, God first commanded that there be light before continuing with the work of creation(Gen.1:1-2). God Himself is the Light (Rev 21:22)

    Importance of Light:- • Light gives illumination and direction. Ps 119:105 • No creation OR order until you receive light on the matter Gen 1:1-2, Dan 9:1-2 • Pure, irresistible, all-conquering Jn 1:5, Matt 4: 4-7 ...read more

    Jesus commands that his followers have an effective influence on their worlds.

    How to Be an Effective Influence Matthew 5:13-16 INTRODUCTION A. John Donne said: “No man is an island.” B. Andrew Murray’s holy and pure life was reflected in his children and grandchildren. Said of him, “Five of his six sons became ministers of the gospel and four of his ...read more

    We can place our utmost confidence in the Word of God to give us power for living and to guide us in the paths of righteousness.

    The Lasting Word Of God Matthew 5:17-19 INTRODUCTION A. Robert Ingersoll once held a Bible and said, “In fifteen years I’ll have this book in a morgue.” In that time he was dead himself. B. Voltaire said, “In one hundred years the Bible will be an outmoded and forgotten ...read more

    Jesus tells the people that He has not come to abolish the Law and the Prophets but to fulfill them. How has Jesus fulfilled them and, if we live by grace, what does this mean for us?

    Living Inside Out - Matthew 5:17-20 - October 16, 2011 Series: Kingdom Life – A World Turned Upside Down #10 This morning we continue in our series on the Sermon on the Mount so I’ll invite you to open your Bibles with me to the 5th chapter of the Gospel of Matthew. Matthew 5, ...read more

    When Light Becomes Darkness

    based on 59 ratings
     | 71,414 views

    One of the names by which Christians are known is "Light.” Christians are supposed to be the light in this dark world. Christians are supposed to show the way to people who do not know the way. They are supposed to direct those who are in darkness

    Matthew 5:14-16 says, “Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candle stick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your ...read more

     | 7,074 views

    This message looks at what happens when we behave the way we are supposed to behave.

    Over the past four weeks I’ve been speaking about what Jesus said about our behaviour, and if you were looking for a specific list of what we can do and can’t do you’ve been disappointed. Jesus didn’t provide a detailed list but instead insisted that our relationship with ...read more

    An introduction to the Beatitudes found in Matthew 5

    INTRODUCTION In Matthew Chapter 5 we find Matthews record of Jesus’ teachings on what is commonly known as, the Beatitudes. You may be thinking, good golly; so what, big whoop! What does this portion of Scripture have to do with Christianity in 2012? Before, we look at each ...read more

    There are plenty of believers in this nation who should be making a difference and yet it seems that we lose battle after battle in regards to the moral compass of the United States.

    PRAY Lord God and Father, open our eyes so we can see Your truth. Open our ears so w can hear Your voice. Open our mind so we can understand Your Word. And open our heart so we may receive all that You want me to receive. AMEN This past week half the people in our nation were happy because of the ...read more

    The light that a Christian shines is so that others might see good works and give God the glory.

    Leave a Light On! Matt 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. (KJV) Introduction Motel 6 has a slogan that says “We’ll leave a light on for you.” That should be the slogan for every Christian and ...read more

    Jesus calls us to be an influence in this world through a comparison to salt in the sermon on the mount.

    INFLUENCE IS….. Matthew 5:13 Intro. I heard of a minister who was making a wooden trellis to support a climbing vine. As he was pounding away, he noticed that a little boy was watching him. The youngster didn’t say a word, so the preacher kept on working, thinking the lad would leave. But he ...read more

    Impacting Your World For Jesus Series

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Sep 10, 2011
     | 12,018 views

    Jesus asks us to be both salt AND light to impact the world around us for him. We need to be both, not one or the other. It’s a challenge!

    Making Jesus better known to others will complicate your life, but the rewards are out of this world! Getting married, or having children complicates things; but they’re worth it. Spending time with people who don’t know Jesus will complicate your life, but it’s so worth it. Ask a mother a few ...read more

    Jesus’ metaphors of salt and light reveal how His followers are to be positive influences in the world.

    You’ve probably all heard the old adage “No man is an island.” Since that was the thought that first came to mind as I read the passage that we’ll look at this morning, this week I did some research to find out where that saying originated. It comes from Meditation XVII ...read more
