    You "Are" The Salt You "Are" The Light! It does not state you could be the Salt or the light. It does not say you should be the salt and the light. It says you "are". It is a promise!

    Jesus blessed the people, a radical movement of sustaining faith that permitted the hope of the people to live in the spirit of Christ to forgive man's sins.

    Bless Me by Dr. Gale A. Ragan-Reid (April 9, 2015) “Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. ...” (St. Matthew 5:3-11, King James Version (KJV) [The sermon on the mount]. Greetings in the Holy Name Of Jesus, My brothers and ...read more

    Matthew 5 - Part 11 - Quick, I Think I Need A Lawyer! Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Dec 31, 2009
    based on 9 ratings
     | 5,362 views

    When it comes to the law, I am not merely an in-law (one whose relationship with God is based on a set of rules and regulations) or an outlaw (one who wants to live outside the law). I need a lawyer!

    Matthew 5 - Part 11 - I think I need a lawyer? I once went to court on behalf of young mother with an intellectual disability. She was a difficult person and the Department of Children’s Services had decided, in their wisdom, to apply the letter of the law and take away her child. It was my task ...read more

    Matthew 5 - Part 12 - Am I Going To Hell Just For Being Angry? Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jan 1, 2010
    based on 11 ratings
     | 9,409 views

    Jesus is talking to His disciples on the mountain and this is the leadership lesson!- Get mad at someone and curse him and you go to hell! Wooh! How do you feel with this encouraging word so far?

    Matthew 5 - Part 12 - AM I GOING TO HELL JUST FOR BEING ANGRY? I have always wondered about the statement Jesus makes in Matthew 5:21-26. There are some pretty strong statements made like... Murder someone and you’ll go to court but "if you are even angry with someone, you are subject to ...read more

    Matthew 5 - Part 13 - Am I Going To Hell For Calling Someone A Fool? Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jan 3, 2010
    based on 14 ratings
     | 11,063 views

    Does calling your brother a fool make you guilty of hell. Is this what Jesus means? The NASB softens it down by adding the words "guilty ENOUGH TO GO into the fiery hell." but literally it says "whoever says ‘Fool’ will be sent to fiery hell"

    Matthew 5 - Part 13 - AM I GOING TO HELL FOR CALLING SOMEONE A FOOL? I’ve been thinking about "Murder". Not committing murder but the subject of "murder". Jesus uses "murder" as a teaching unit on the mountain for His disciples. But He takes the view that it’s what happens on the inside that ...read more

    Matthew 5 - Part 14 - What Do You Do When Someone Hates You? Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jan 4, 2010
    based on 14 ratings
     | 12,014 views

    Jesus goes beyond the legal matters again. The CASE you have against someone is not as important as the RELATIONSHIP you have with them. Jesus emphasizes that the RELATIONSHIP IS ALWAYS MORE IMPORTANT. Sometimes we don’t want it to be more important.

    Matthew 5 - Part 14 - WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN SOMEONE HATES YOU? I remember years ago that a man wrote a nasty letter to me and included in it a curse and all kinds of false accusations. To this day, I don’t know why he wrote it. It was so vicious and untrue, but he had built up a case against me and ...read more

    Is there a relationship in your life that needs some attention? Jesus says to get to that first.

    Time: Use It While You've Got It! Text: Matthew 5:23 Some men have the genetic problem of hair loss. Basically, having a hard time holding onto their hair.

    The Key To Righteous Living

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 15, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,308 views

    Jesus came not to destroy the law, but to keep and fulfill it. We also are required to be obedient to the law - not indeed as a means of salvation (which it could never be) - but as an expression of our love and service.

    THE KEY TO RIGHTEOUS LIVING. Matthew 5:17-20. 1. Jesus’ statement is emphatic:- “Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill” (Matthew 5:17). The righteousness of God is the Lord Jesus Christ. He is the end of the law, the one to whom ...read more
