Our King, His Kingdom
Part 15
May 7, 2023 • Tim Maxson
In life we see and hear many warnings that are meant to keep us safe. Some warnings are more cautionary and come across more like good “suggestions.” But others are very serious and are a matter of life and death! At the end of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus gives four serious warnings for those who would seek to follow Him and be part of his Kingdom.

Judging is something every single one of us do everyday. In fact, mere seconds after seeing a stranger or meeting someone new, we've already made several. Our brains are lazy and designed to take shortcuts, and judging is one of them. For something that comes very easy to us, how can it be we are instructed not to judge? Pastor Ray walks us through a seemingly impossible task in this message of our current series Our King, His Kingdom.

Do you often wonder in a worrisome way about things? What if I lose my job, or don't get one? What if my family is not doing well? What if I'm not actually headed down the right path in life? The thing about anxiety is that it can consume our lives without us knowing. Jesus has something to say about all our What Ifs.

What is it that motivates us to do what we do before God? Is it truly for an "audience of 1" or just simply the applause of humans? Difficult questions, yet there's a passage where Jesus speaks straight into the heart of the issue. Pastor Ray breaks it all down for us as he continues the Our King, His Kingdom series.

It's the very thorniest of topics: Divorce and Remarriage. And even worse it's often a topic that's fraught with pain, guilt and shame from the past. Lucky for us, Jesus was asked about this very topic, and Pastor Ray will help us walk through this as he continues the Our King, His Kingdom message series.

How comfortable are you talking about lust? Why does this deep desire that God placed within all of us sometimes feel so shameful to talk about? It doesn't have to be shameful - especially when you dwell on how Jesus spoke about lust. Pastor Bill tackles this difficult topic as we continue in our series Our King, His Kingdom.

Your anger might not be the explosive, intense kind that we associate with angry people. Perhaps it's calm, cunning, or just cruel in a passive way. But don't be mistaken - Jesus himself warns us that all anger must be dealt with so it doesn't turn into sin. Pastor Ray reveals the truth about anger as we continue in the series Our King, His Kingdom.

If you have ever moved to a new country, you can relate to the process of discovering a whole new set of rules. Housing contracts, government services, how to drive - so much of your life will be different to how it was back home. The very first disciples wrestled with these exact same questions as they entered into a whole new kingdom. We will talk about what they discovered as Pastor Barak continues our message series Our King, His Kingdom.

To follow Jesus and his teachings is to recognise that most of what we learn from the world about how to live our lives is upside-down. If you want to live with Jesus as your King, be prepared to encounter one of the most profound teachings he gave as Pastor Bill Koogler continues the series Our King, His Kingdom.
Part 5

When Jesus calls on us to repent it's not simply turning from sin and turning to God. It specifically focuses on a relationship with Jesus. And not just a relationship, but a relationship on his terms. And it's so personal and eternal. As Pastor Ray continues the Our King, His Kingdom series, we will see that we get to follow Jesus all the way into eternity.

Are you ready for the barrage of temptations headed your way? The good news is, you are not alone. We all struggle with doing what we don't want to do, we all live face to face with temptations...even Jesus was tempted. Pastor Bill Koogler unpacks Jesus' temptations and what that means for victorious living for us as we continue in our series Our King, His Kingdom.

"Repent" is a loaded word for many. For some it means brimstone and fire preachers - for others street picketers and rallies. And for many, it's just too churchy. But there's no getting away from its presence in the very earliest days of Jesus' ministry. Pastor Ray helps us understand why repentance is important as he continues the Our King, His Kingdom series.

What makes someone great? Is it character? What they've accomplished? The obstacles they've overcome? Think about this: there's a king so great that foreign dignitaries go to great lengths just to see him; so great that he fulfills prophecies considered ancient; so great he made mighty rulers afraid of tiny toddlers.
