Marriage is sacred and something God created with a purpose in mind. He put it together and wants it to stay together for a lifetime. It’s not hard to see a growing number of marriages today are ending in divorce! The Lord actually spoke quite a bit about it in His Word as you’ll hear on Sound Doctrine. We’ll be camping out in Matthew chapter five and verses thirty-one and thirty-two. Pastor Jeff Johnson will unveil what Moses, the Pharisees and Jesus taught about divorce over the next two broadcasts!

Today on Sound Doctrine we continue pastor Jeff Johnson’s study in First John. We’ll pick things up in chapter two at verse nine.

Think that through with us, as we present part one of, “To Walk in the Light = Love!”

Marriage is God’s idea. He designed the union of a man and a woman to be a permanent lifetime commitment. He underscores that without commitment, you can’t establish trust and without trust, there can’t be true intimacy. When the trust is broken by adultery it’s extremely devastating. Just look around for evidence of that! Pastor Jeff Johnson is teaching through the Sermon on the Mount and today on Sound Doctrine we come to the subject of Adultery and Lust.

Adultery is occurring at an alarming rate in today’s world. It’s even portrayed in such a way on TV as if it’s perfectly acceptable and normal. But what they rarely show is the devastation that’s left behind. Today on Sound Doctrine we’ll see what God has to say on the subject and where it all starts in the heart. While you may have never committed the physical act of adultery, have you ever looked at another person with lust in your heart? Join pastor Jeff Johnson in Matthew chapter five for part one of, “Avoiding Lust!”

As we head back to Matthew chapter five and our study in the Sermon on the Mount, remember Jesus is really getting to the heart of the matter, revealing the inward attitudes and motives of the heart.

The religions of the world very often focus on outward actions, but Jesus in His Sermon on the Mount deals with inward attitudes. He explains how righteousness is obtained, and that the life of the Christian is not an outward show but an inward reality. Today on Sound Doctrine we’ll talk about Actions and Attitudes as we approach Matthew chapter five, verses 21-26.

We’re making our way through Matthew with pastor Jeff Johnson. Some would have us believe that we need to do enough good works to earn our salvation, but the truth of the matter as we’ll see today, is a relationship with Jesus is the ticket. With that said, the law does serve an important purpose and it was fulfilled in Christ. We'll spend some time talking about that, as we join pastor Jeff in Matthew chapter five.

In light of all that you’ve said and done, do ever feel unlovable? Unworthy of love? Here’s some good news… God loves you in spite of all of that, and He proved it at the cross.

Ephesians 2:8-9 says, “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith- and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God. Not by works, so that no one can boast!” That sure makes it clear, we’re saved by grace and not by trying to live up to the standard of the law. But does that mean the law of God is unnecessary? Today on Sound Doctrine we learn that Jesus didn’t come to destroy the law, but rather fulfill it! But what should our response to the law be? Find out today.

Today pastor Jeff resumes our study of the Sermon on the Mount. Today we’re learning what we’re to be like in these last days. Jesus summed it up perfectly… we’re to be both salt and light. Salt is what we are… we cause a thirst. Light is what we do… we shine!
