The Way of Jesus

The Way of Jesus

April 16, 2023 • Pastor Chris Ross • Matthew 7:7–14

In Jesus’ mountain sermon, he encourages his disciples on the subjects of prayer, how they treat others and makes his exclusive claims about himself and his way that leads to life.

Knowing Jesus

April 30, 2023 • Pastor Jeremy Isaak • Matthew 7:21–29

Matthew 7:21-29 After preaching the greatest sermon of all time Jesus closes with a weighty warning: there will be people that will be rejected from eternity with God despite having made a public confession of faith and even having worked mighty miracles. Empty words and works on their own cannot save. It is only through true relationship with Christ as demonstrated in real obedience that we can be saved.

The True Foundation

April 30, 2023 • Pastor Jonathan Neufeld • Matthew 7:21–29

Jesus ends the sermon on the mount with some of the most frightening words he ever speaks. Jesus gives his disciples a stern warning about not placing their trust in cheap grace or religious works. However, he does not say this to simply scare them but to show them where true salvation is found.

Does Jesus Know Me?

April 30, 2023 • Pastor Kurtus Niessen • Matthew 7:21–29

Jesus closes His Sermon on the Mount with the most difficult words He ever spoke: “‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.” He challenges us to evaluate and uncover the very foundation of our lives and consider “Where do we stake our hope?” But ultimately, it’s not a question of whether we know him (as important as that is), but whether He knows us. So ask yourself, “Is my foundation built on my strength, or on the authority of Christ?”
