Jesus is working His way through most of the ten commandments.  In these verses, He addresses swearing and taking an oath.  How is Jesus getting down to the heart of the matter with what God has intended in this area? Also, we encounter the well-known command to turn the other cheek—to continue to love and … Continue reading Podcast: Matthew 5:33-42

Jesus continues to reestablish the law in all its clarity.  In these verses, He addresses sexual immorality.  What is the real problem?  What are places in our lives that are ruling us, and affecting our relationships with God and others?   https://oembed.libsyn.com/embed?item_id=17620235

In these verses, Jesus guides us to reset our thinking about our relationship with God and others, on the basis of how we see ourselves under the law.  Are we self-righteous, or honest about our condition under the law?     https://oembed.libsyn.com/embed?item_id=17589704

Jesus starts on a refrain that He continues for the rest of the chapter: “You have heard that it was said to those of old … but I say to you…”.  What is His point with these statements, and how can it transform our thinking, both about ourselves and others?  How can we be ambassadors … Continue reading Podcast: Matthew 5:21-22

What do we do with the Law? How are we to understand it?  Jesus articulates this in these verses from the Sermon on the Mount.  That's what we'll discuss in this episode. https://oembed.libsyn.com/embed?item_id=17515322

At the end of the beatitudes, the tone shifts to being persecuted.  How are to be encouraged by Jesus' promises in these verses?  Where else is “salt” mentioned in the Bible?  What uses does salt have, and how can we can apply that idea to our lives? https://oembed.libsyn.com/embed?item_id=17479166

This passage is the beginning of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, the beatitudes.  How can we understand these?  What do "blessed" and "happy" mean in the Greek text? And "poor in spirit"??  How can we understand the first beatitude? It's important to consider these with a biblical worldview.  Listen to more about this worldview from … Continue reading Podcast: Matthew 5:1-12

After Jesus is tempted in the wilderness, He begins His ministry in the north.  Why is that important?  This passage is also an example of themes we see that connect all four Gospels.  What is that connectedness?   https://oembed.libsyn.com/embed?item_id=17379857

Podcast: Matthew 4:5-11

December 29, 2020 ~ wordwithoutwalls ~ Leave a comment

In this text, we see Jesus experiencing the second and third temptations from the devil in the wilderness. The devil tries to use God's Word, but out of context and for the opposite of its purpose.  That worked with Adam and Eve; why didn't it work with Jesus?  We also see the devil take Jesus … Continue reading Podcast: Matthew 4:5-11
