Following Jesus: The Book of Matthew

In this episode, we examine Matthew 5:28–30, a passage where Jesus mentions hell twice while speaking about lust.But these verses raise an important question:Do they actually teach us anything about hell itself?

"Blessed are those who..." is how Jesus begins the most influential sermon ever preached. This section of the sermon is called the 'Beatitudes,' and is a description of Jesus' kingdom. It is the opposite of the kingdom of this world. In Jesus' kingdom, the people who understand their position before God are those who are blessed. Those who choose God's ways and choose repentance are those who reap blessing, if not here in this life, they reap blessing in eternity for faith in Jesus.

The Beatitudes in Matthew 5 represent far more than simple blessings to be memorized or displayed on wall hangings. They constitute a revolutionary redefinition of who receives God's favor, challenging every assumption about success and blessing in the ancient world. Jesus delivered these words to society's most marginalized people - fishermen, day laborers, the sick, demon-possessed, and paralyzed individuals who occupied the lowest rungs of Roman society's honor-shame culture. In stark contrast to previous teachers who blessed the successful, victorious, and socially prominent, Jesus turned everything upside down by declaring blessed are the broken. The poor in spirit are those who recognize their complete spiritual destitution and dependence on God. Those who mourn grieve over the right things - sin, injustice, and the brokenness of the world - rather than numbing themselves with success or entertainment. The meek demonstrate strength under control, waiting for God's vindication rather than grasping for power. Those who hunger and thirst for righteousness possess an all-consuming longing for things to be made right in their relationship with God and in society. Remarkably, these four beatitudes paint a perfect portrait of Jesus himself, who came from humble circumstances, mourned deeply over the world's condition, refused to abuse his power, and was consumed with righteousness. The Beatitudes aren't commands to earn God's blessing but descriptions of those who already possess it through Christ. They speak directly to the broken, humble, and dependent - those who know they desperately need a Savior and find themselves exactly where God's kingdom begins.

This week kicks off our Ancient Practices series focused on Scripture by recovering the simple, foundational habit of reading the Bible daily as apprentices of Jesus. In the Gospel of Matthew 5:17–19, Jesus makes it clear that Scripture is not optional or outdated but fulfilled in him and meant to form the lives of his followers. As we resist distraction and neglect, we're invited to meet the living God in his Word—and to practice what we read so it moves from page to life.Catch the sermon on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or bridge.tv/sermons.To support this ministry and help us continue our God given mission, click here: http://bit.ly/2NZkdrC Support the show

In the fourth statement about those who are blessed in the Kingdom of God, Jesus promises that when we hunger and thirst for righteousness, we will be filled.  The next four “blessed are” statements go on to describe what a person who is filled with Jesus looks like and acts like. - Pastor Ron KoolSupport the show

Jesus' words in Matthew 5:22 are often heard as teaching that a single word can damn a person to hell. But when read carefully, the passage reveals something far more unsettling: Jesus is not adding a new sin alongside murder—He is redefining what murder actually is. Anger, contempt, and condemnation are exposed as murder at the heart level, killing without blood.

In this episode, we slow down and work carefully through Matthew 5:22, one of Jesus' earliest uses of the word Gehenna. As part of our commitment to examine every passage that speaks to judgment after death—without skipping anything, we ask a simple but often neglected question: what does this verse actually say, and what does it not say?

Today’s Bible Verse: “But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.” — Matthew 5:44 Matthew 5:44 confronts our natural instincts. Loving enemies and praying for those who hurt us doesn’t come easily—and Jesus knows that. This command isn’t about ignoring harm or pretending wounds don’t exist. It’s about choosing a different response: releasing bitterness and trusting God with justice. “Want to listen without ads?

Send a text In this episode of BuddyWalk with Jesus, we slow down over Matthew 5:10: “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Jesus isn't promoting paranoia, a victim mindset, or picking fights—He's preparing apprentices for what happens when Kingdom life collides with the values of the world. We explore what “persecuted” means in the original language, why Jesus qualifies it as suffering for righteousness (not for being difficult), and why He repeats the same promise as the first Beatitude: “theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” This episode helps you discern persecution versus consequences, resist bitterness or performative martyrdom, and remain rooted in the present-tense reality of God's Kingdom—even when faithfulness costs you. Support the show If you have any questions about the subjects covered in today's episode you can find us on Facebook at the links below or you can shoot me an email at joe@buddywalkwithjesus.com One Stop Shop for all the links Linktr.ee/happydeamedia

If you take one look at today's news headlines, it's likely that right now, peace seems like a pipe dream.But does Jesus call us to an impossible task in Matthew 5:9 when He says, “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God”? Tune in to this episode to unpack the seventh beatitude, a call to imitate our God of peace as people of peace—which is Jesus' deep desire for His Church and a powerful witness to the watching world.If you want to keep digging into the themes in this episode, consider the following passages and reflection questions.Read Proverbs 19:11. Are there any offenses you're harboring that should be overlooked? How can you take a step toward forgiveness today?Read Proverbs 12:20. What impact would it have on your life to “plan peace” (ESV)? How does this motivate you to pursue peace this week?Read Romans 12:15. When you think about any existing conflict in your life, search your heart and ask the Holy Spirit to show you if you have done all that is possible to be at peace with others. If not, ask the Lord to show you your next step.4. Read Ephesians 2:14–17. How does this passage encourage you to pursue peace in your community?Enjoyed this podcast?

Title: Upside Down Interior LifeSpeaker: Nate HoldridgeOverview: In this week's sermon from Calvary Monterey's ongoing series through the Gospel of Matthew, Nate Holdridge walks through the final three of Jesus' six antitheses in Matthew 5:33–48 — the passage on oaths, retaliation, and enemy love. Under the title "The Upside Down Life With Others," Nate shows how Jesus was not abolishing the Old Testament but driving his listeners past the letter of the law to its deepest intention: a community of people so anchored in God that their trustworthiness needs no oath to confirm it, their security needs no retaliation to protect it, and their love needs no worthy recipient to motivate it. The sermon unpacks what it means to be radically trustworthy, radically surprising, and radically loving — and lands on the stunning closing command of Matthew 5, "Be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect," not as a burden but as an invitation to fix our eyes on the One who fulfilled every word of it on our behalf.Link to Sermon NotesLink to Discussion Questions
