We’re making our way through the Sermon on the Mount with pastor Jeff Johnson, and today we return to chapter seven and receive some prayer pointers. The first of which has to do with knowing our need and God’s grace that meets that need. We’ll then transition to knowing God as our Abba Father, and finally be reminded that God is perfect and doesn’t make mistakes.

There’s a danger we need to be aware of as Christians and that is becoming worldly! Simply put, worldliness is anything that takes us away from loving God and doing His will. Last time, we uncovered a couple of reasons why Christians shouldn’t love the world. Because of what it is, and what it does to us! Pastor Jeff observes a couple more reasons today in First John chapter two, verses 15-17.

Today on Sound Doctrine we’ll be looking at a section of the sermon on the mount that is crucial to the life of a believer. We often find ourselves in a position as Christians where we lack what God wants to give us, and it’s because we haven’t asked! Even when we ask God, we very often ask off target because we rarely know what’s best for us in life.

We return to the Sermon on the Mount today. Some would have you believe that we’re never to judge, but as we’ll learn today Jesus really never taught that. As we travel through life we’ll need to make some judgement calls and discriminate. We’re just not to do it like the Pharisees of old.

We’re setting out to answer this question today on Sound Doctrine, “Is Discrimination Scriptural?” Before you answer that, or draw any premature conclusions, find your place in Matthew chapter seven, as we again examine the Sermon on the Mount with pastor Jeff Johnson. You just might be surprised to discover that Jesus and His disciples used some discrimination and discernment. While we too should discriminate, we need to be careful not to take things too far and become hyper-critical or start to condemn.

The Lord said, “Judge not, lest you be judged.” It’s become one of the most misused and misunderstood statements ever uttered by Jesus. You’ll hear that phrase often invoked to excuse all sorts of bad behavior. But is that an accurate usage of the Lord’s words? Is Jesus saying, we’re to refrain from exercising judgement and discernment? We’ve come to the seventh chapter of Matthew here today on Sound Doctrine- where Jesus takes on the subject of judging others and the right and wrong way of going about it.

Today on Sound Doctrine we'll be going over what may be one of the most misunderstood sections of the Sermon on the Mount. How many times have we heard someone say, “Judge not!” It’s almost always quoted out of context, and is often used to condemn anyone who chooses to make judgements based on the teachings and standards of the Bible. Pastor Jeff Johnson will help us arrive at a better understanding of what Jesus is really communicating to us here in part one of, “Judge Yourself.”

Today on Sound Doctrine we’re talking about a love that God hates. Maybe that sounds a bit strange upon first hearing. But the love we’re talking about is a love for the world! And First John contains a much-needed warning about it that we’d do well to pay close attention to! You’re about to hear four very good reasons Christians shouldn’t love the world.

We’re talking about worry today on Sound Doctrine, both its causes and cure. We’ll be in Matthew chapter six, verses 33-34. In the last few verses of this chapter Jesus again is talking about worry. And for those of us prone to this sort of thing, this will prove to be valuable instruction.

Maybe you’ve noticed here in the last days there’s a lot of anxiety, fear and worry in the hearts of mankind! So today on Sound Doctrine we’ll pause to consider the causes and cure for Worry. And Jesus spoke about it plenty in the Sermon on the Mount, and today we take you to the end of Matthew chapter six to hear what He has to say about it.
