    A look at various approaches to making ethical decisions.

    When I taught an ethics course, as an adjunct, at Mount Vernon Nazarene University, I started the class by talking about the fact that moral decisions are at times exceedingly complex. Black and white categories do not work very well in the real stuff of life. To demonstrate this I used an ...read more

    Jesus gave the ultimate commentary on the Old Testament law, yet it is not very well understood in the Christian community. In this the first of several sermons, we will explore the law and the Christian.

    Intro In the sermon on the mount Jesus called us salt and light, then condemned whoever sets aside the least of God’s commands. Does that mean that Christians should put to death idolaters, Sabbath breakers, adulterers and those who dishonor their parents, sacrifices animals, be ...read more

    Why did Jesus come to Earth? What difference did it make if He fulfilled the Law and the Prophets or not? In what way(s) did He fulfill the Law and the Prophets? Since the law was not abolished what does that mean to us today?

    The section of Scripture that we’re looking at today comes from the Sermon on the Mount where Jesus taught: The Beatitudes Salt and Light The fulfillment of the law Murder, adultery and divorce Taking oaths, an eye for an eye and loving your enemies Giving to the needy, prayer and ...read more

    Making clear His attitude toward the Old Law, Jesus challenged the religious leaders teaching and raised the bar when it came to righteous living.

    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

    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

     | 5,498 views

    Is Jesus making the Law binding upon Christians in these verses?

    Neither Jot, nor Tittle Matthew 5:17-19 This text has many emphatic markers in the Greek which indicates that what Jesus says here is to be taken with all seriousness. We need to be reminded again that the Sermon on the Mount was preached to His disciples in the light of dividing the true ...read more

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 15, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,484 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

    Having salt is good and so is having the mustard or having the spirit of God indwelling us in a productive way. The sermon tells us the good that can be done with the mustard and the negative results if we don't have the mustard.
