In this episode we consider the scriptures associated with Christmas from the standpoint of some passages we studied in Jesus' Sermon on the Mount - the Beatitudes, the Lord's Prayer, and even the Sheep and the Goats passage from Matthew 25.

In this episode we conclude our series on Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, covering his challenge to "build our house on the rock."

มุมมอง 252 หลายเดือนก่อน
In this concluding challenge section of the series covering Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, we briefly review the sermon so far, and then focus on the images of two gates that Jesus uses in his conclusion: one small opening to a narrow road and one broad leading to an easy road. We also take a little detour into a discussion of "many" and "few" with respect to who finds the gate that lead to life. ...
2024 10 06 Ask Seek Knock
มุมมอง 423 หลายเดือนก่อน
Jesus has taught us to seek first God's kingdom and right relationships - and not to judge or condemn others, but to use discernment. He has moved into teaching us about our relationships with one another. And then, he says "Ask, Seek, Knock..." For what? We often take this passage out of context and miss Jesus' point. This session includes a reference to the August 4, 2024 message that you can...
2024 09 29 - Worry
มุมมอง 193 หลายเดือนก่อน
Jesus' "Sermon on the Mount" has included his warning against hypocrisy, then his encouragement toward generosity, and last time we condluded with his admonition that we cannot serve both God and money! That naturally brings up our human inclination to worry about the future. This time, we consider Jesus' teaching to leave worry behind, instead seeking first God's kingdom and right relationship...

2024 08 25 - Fasting, Treasure, and Eyes to See
มุมมอง 214 หลายเดือนก่อน
After teaching his disciples what we call the Lord's Prayer, Jesus returns to the topic of hypocrisy - that is, in his terms, practicing religion and doing good deeds to be seen by others. He addresses fasting, generosity, our treasure, and having eyes to see. It's quite a profound line of thought, and a great treasure for those with eyes to see.

2024 08 04 - Offense, Condemnation, and the Olympics
มุมมอง 245 หลายเดือนก่อน
How should Jesus' followers respond to offenses? Is condemnation a good response? The Olympic opening ceremony led to some strong reactions from many Christians that led me to consider this question, and speak to it from the Sermon on the Mount, a bit out of order in our text.

      That's a fine question! Pastor Brooks hasn't recorded much video lately - it is a good bit of extra work. However, you can find him every Sunday evening and Thursday morning for the meal and service at the Friends Church located at 850 Atlantic Avenue. Encourage him to record some video if you are unable to be present physically! He's seen the comment and knows you are looking for him here.

    Great talk! A little slip of the tongue around 26:00: Pastor said that a historian described "the Nazis as German because they claimed to be German...." Well, they WERE German! What he meant was that the Nazis claimed to be Christian. May seem hard to believe, but it's true. There are many places in Mein Kampf where Hitler made this claim. Here's one: "So glaube ich heute im Sinne des allmächtigen Schöpfers zu handeln: Indem ich mich des Juden erwehre, kämpfe ich für das Werk des Herrn." Translation: "Therefore I believe today I act in the spirit of the almighty Creator: By defending myself against the Jew, I fight for the Lord's work." In his later years he made it clear that he was an atheist; I believe in the 1920s he was claiming to be serving God just as a cheap way of gaining support--and it worked. This extreme example should remind us to be vigilant: think for yourselves to check whether the "work" someone is doing really is consistent with who God is, as He has already revealed Himself in Scripture.
