Judge Rightly
Everyone knows Christians aren’t supposed to judge others, right? Wrong. Jesus calls us to judge others, but within certain parameters. I lay out these guidelines in this next post on the Sermon on the Mount.
Theology
Humility Honored
God calls us to walk in humility. In Matthew 6, Jesus lays down three examples of times to be humble and not arrogant like the religious leaders. He talks a lot about how God honors and rewards those who are humble and look to Him.
Higher Standard
In His own words, Jesus came to fulfill the law. And He calls us to fulfill the Spirit of the Law. What does that mean? In short, we’re called to a higher standard of living than the world. Take a look at what Jesus said here with me.
Beatitudes of Jesus
Jesus opened His very famous Sermon on the Mount with the well known Beatitudes. Not all of them are well understood, however, so let’s dive in and learn what it is Jesus meant us to learn from them.
Victory in Jesus
As Christians, we have victory in Jesus. Victory over sin, victory over the devil, victory over the world, etc. But all too often we live with a defeated mindset. I personally want to get back to the victorious mindset the Bible talks about.
