Continuing to look at the Beatitudes, we examine those who are persecuted from Matthew 5:10 https://longhollow.com/theforgottenjesuspodcastshownotes

Weekly sermon from Trinity Church Denver

Traditional teaching of religious leaders had missed what the Old Testament actually taught about loving neighbors and the implications of texts like Proverbs 25:21 for our interaction with "enemies." Jesus teaching is radical; Jesus is calling us to a love that is far beyond what is common.  Therefore, we cannot demonstrate such love apart from the reliance upon the Holy Spirit and prayer.  

Covering the beatitudes tonight with respect to oaths, retaliation and loving your enemies. Thanks for tuning in!

GRAND PARKWAY BAPTIST CHURCHMatthew 5:33-37The Insufficiency of Swearing1. We must reclaim a sense of our self, v. 33-36Here is the progression in how we lose ourselves...1)we become disillusioned with ourselves2)we become distrusting of ourselves3)we become destructive towards ourselvesSigns you are losing yourself...a)seeking external validationb)difficulty with decisionsc)feeling lostd)emotional foge)loss of identityf) negative self-talkg)always changing to fit inh)increased anxiety and insecurityHebrews 6:13-162. We must reclaim simple speech, v. 37Mental worship...1. What do you point to when you go outside of yourself to establish your integrity?2. Is there anybody in your life who has slowly stopped believing you?3. What is the motive when you are less than truthful, less than forthright and lacking integrity inyour speech?4. When is the last time you did something you didn't want to do just because you couldn't say,“No”?5. What needs to change in what you believe in order for there to be a change in how you talk?

You were meant to live a life of ethical beauty. Jesus shows us how.How should I live? It's one of the most important questions in life. Every human being is a moral creature; the problem is that we don't all agree on morality. But what if there was an objective moral standard that's true in all times and places? That's exactly what Scripture gives us - and it's exactly what our conscience needs. In this sermon, we explore how faith in Jesus makes it possible to live a life of ethical beauty.Series Description: Jesus is the hero of all of Scripture, the center of the biblical story, and the most important figure in history. The Gospel of Matthew gives us a firsthand look at the life and teachings of Jesus. It stands as a “bridge” between the Old and New Testaments, grounding us in the rich story of Israel while revealing the in-breaking reality of the kingdom of heaven. Through this preaching series, we seek to help people encounter the gospel of the kingdom and embody it as flourishing disciples who live under the gracious rule of God.

Matthew 5:7, blessed are the merciful!

Chapters (00:00:00) - Responding to Others(00:05:49) - Don't Swear to the Lord(00:11:48) - Responding to Others(00:19:14) - The Second Mile(00:22:52) - Love Your Enemies(00:28:08) - Why Love Your Enemies(00:34:14) - God Bless This Night

This week, we step into the opening verses of the Sermon on the Mount, where Jesus begins with the Beatitudes—blessings that completely redefine what it means to live a full and meaningful life. Jesus calls “blessed” those who are humble, merciful, pure in heart, and even those who face persecution for following Him.

"Be True" Matthew 5:8Pastor Brandi Drake

In this message, Pastor Brandon unpacks Matthew 5:33–48 and shows how kingdom living sometimes looks like losing now—but it's actually trading up forever. Jesus calls us to radical honesty, refusal to retaliate, open-handed generosity, and love for enemies. Each choice may seem like a worldly disadvantage, yet heaven's ledger records it as eternal gain (Matthew 5:12; 6:19–21). Key Points • Truthfulness (vv. 33–37): Let your "Yes" be yes—no spin, just integrity before God. • Non-retaliation (vv. 38–42): "Turn the other cheek." Strength under control reflects the King. • Generosity (v. 42): Give and lend without calculating payback; trust the Father to repay. • Enemy-love (vv. 43–48): Pray for those who oppose you—showing the family resemblance to your Father in heaven. Why it Matters Choosing truth over image, mercy over payback, and generosity over self-protection may cost you now—but Christ promises greater reward and deeper Christlikeness that lasts forever.

The good life is found on the narrow way. “All men seek happiness.” So said the French philosopher Blaise Pascal. Every human being has a longing for satisfaction, fulfillment, wholeness. What does Jesus have to say about happiness? In this sermon, we explore how Jesus's words in the Sermon on the Mount reveal the path to genuine happiness and flourishing.Series Description: Jesus is the hero of all of Scripture, the center of the biblical story, and the most important figure in history.

Weekly Sermon from Trinity Church Denver

Are you A Peacemaker? - Matthew 5:9

542. Who is your Friend? Matthew 5:43-48 Tomisin Olanrewaju 19102025 by City Church Lagos

Title: LoveScripture Reading: Matthew 22:35-40, Matthew 7:17-20, Matthew 7:13-14Series: The “L” Fruits of JesusWhen observing the lavish lifestyle of a televangelist, it's easy to question the "fruit" of their ministry. Jesus Himself said we would identify people by their fruit. So, what fruit should we expect to see in the life of a disciple?This sermon kicks off a new series, "The 'L' Fruits of Jesus," by focusing on the most foundational fruit: Love. We explore the two critical axes of Christian love. The vertical axis is loving God, which is demonstrated not just by hearing His word, but by our obedience to it. The horizontal axis is loving others, which requires traveling the "narrow road." This difficult path specifically challenges us to love our enemies and to speak the truth in love , even when the world redefines what "truth" and "love" mean.

Life Group Questions: 1. How did God speak to you through this week's sermon? 2. Are you at peace with God? What about people? Has the peace you feel seemed circumstantial? 3. What will you put into practice moving forward to stay at peace with God and with people?

Send me a Text Message!I think if I lived in the days of Pharisees and Scribes, when I heard Jesus say, "Unless your righteousness exceeds the guys who do it for a living..." I would have heard, "Unless your righteousness goes to infinity and beyond, unless you get more righteous than you ever imagined you could be, you might as well forget it." But that's not Jesus message. Jesus wasn't just looking for a quantity of  righteousness, He was looking for quality of righteousness. He was looking for a different heart, that would love different.He was looking for people who didn't major in rules and regulations, but rather lived and loved different, against the flow. I hope by the end of this episode, you'll have that challenge in your mind. Let's live different!

Send me a Text Message!Tsaddaqim? What is that babbling? It's the Hebrew word for the "Righteous Ones." The next part of Jesus' teaching is all about the righteous ones. Who are the righteous ones? According to Jesus it wasn't the pharisees and the scribes (the proffesionally religious people). In this episode we'll unpack it with a look back at Isaiah's description of the righteous ones. Stuff like: Your light will break forth (sound familiar) and your gloom will be as bright as the noonday. When you call God will answer. He'll satisfy your deepest desires. In fact your life will be like a well-watered garden!Isaiah's words are spoken to broken people. But when God shows up, it's good news for broken people. It's good news because His love is amazing and He calls us to love like that. It's a whole different perspective on righteousness and it makes me want to be able to answer "YES!" to the question, "Are you a Tsaddaqim?"

Matthew 5:4 Audio

Send me a Text Message!You are the light of the world. And God has no other plan for the darkness. That's it.  No other plan.  Jesus said that when the Holy Spirit fills us up, we will have the power to become his witnesses. In other words, we will shine, and that's the plan;  the only plan, no back-up plan b. There are people in your neighborhood who are living in darkness. Paul said in Acts in 17:26-27, that God has set the times and the boundaries of where we live. Why? In the hope that when people seek God, that when they grope for God in the darkness, they will find him.And how do we let our light shine? By doing good deeds that reflect well on our Father in Heaven. Are you a do-gooder? 

Send me a Text Message!You are the light of the world. Isn't that amazing? Do you understand?  We're here to shine.  To be generous with our lives and do good deeds which shine the light on Jesus. You've heard this phrase before, but you may be the only Jesus that people ever see. What do they see when they see you? Think about the last few days, the last week, when people saw you, what did they see? How about in your home; or at church? What does your boss see at work? How about our neighbors, that one that's struggling with cancer, or the elderly wife caring for her husband with alzheimer's and her kids live out of state and sometimes she sits at night,  wondering if she can make it through one more day without help. What did they see in us?  Did we bring light to their darkness? I think Jesus' words are a call, a reminder that it's time to shine!
