In this sobering and soul-searching message, Pastor Karl dives deep into Matthew 5:17–48, where Jesus declares that He came not to abolish the Law but to fulfill it—and then raises the bar of righteousness far beyond anything the scribes and Pharisees ever imagined.Through six piercing examples—anger that murders the heart, lust that commits adultery in the mind, casual divorce, manipulative oaths, retaliation, and hatred disguised as justice—Jesus exposes the truth we all try to avoid: outward obedience is never enough. God judges the heart. Every single one of us stands guilty before His perfect standard.Yet the bad news is meant to drive us to the best news. Pastor Karl powerfully unpacks how Jesus' command in verse 48—“You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect”—is not a cruel impossible demand, but the very reason the Son of God came. We cannot achieve the righteousness God requires, so God freely gives it to us through faith in Christ. Jesus took our unrighteousness and imputes His perfect righteousness to all who repent and trust Him.A hard-hitting, heart-exposing sermon that leaves no room for self-righteousness, but ends with the liberating joy of the gospel: guilty sinners can be clothed in the very righteousness of God and stand before Him as if we had never sinned.

Let's grow and share the hope of Christ in every aspect of our lives!This sermon explores the profound difference between worldly hope and the hope found in Christ. Drawing from Colossians 1:27, “Christ in you, the hope of glory,” it challenges us to evaluate where we place our hope as we enter 2025. Are we hoping for personal accomplishments, life changes, or something deeper?Key Themes:The Mystery RevealedGod's plan of salvation, once a mystery, is now revealed: Christ dwells within believers. This truth transforms us and assures us of sharing in His glory (Romans 8:17).Living in the Glory TodayThe presence of Christ within us changes how we live daily. It empowers us to overcome disappointment, rely on His strength, and reflect His glory in our choices and relationships (Galatians 2:20).The Hope of Future GloryOur ultimate hope lies in Christ's return and the glorious future He promises. This hope sustains us through trials, reminding us that our current sufferings are incomparable to the glory to come (Romans 8:18).Through personal reflection, Scripture, and practical challenges, the sermon encourages us to live in the hope of Christ's presence and share it with others. As we step into a new year, may this eternal hope shape how we think, act, and trust in God's promises.Takeaway: “Christ in you” is the greatest hope we have for 2025. Let this hope guide you, transform you, and be shared with those around you.Welcome to Living Hope Church! These podcasts are our weekly Sunday sermons. We hope you enjoy them.
