Matthew 5:1-10
In this sermon, Pastor Rick teaches that spiritual growth begins with honest self-assessment, not outward behavior. Using Matthew 5 and the life of Saul, he reveals how refusing to confront our attitude quietly undermines leadership, clarity, and long-term purpose.

Genesis 5-7; 19 Psalms 8-9; 40 Matthew 5
In Genesis 5 we have another of the seven genealogies in the book of Genesis. Sometimes we rush through genealogies, or even avoid reading them believing them to be unimportant. But there isinformation in these chapters that is designed to teach the diligent seeker. Usher used Biblical genealogies to determine that the creative days of chapter 1 occurred about 4,004 years before the birth of Jesus Christ. Apart from noticing the length of the lives of those who were born before the flood, we find the phrase - "and he died" occurs again, and again. This reinforces the sentence of chapter 2verses17, "you shall surely die". The Hebrew phrase actually means, in dying you will die, i.e. the process of corruption will bring you to the inevitable end in your death. The chapter therefore powerfully teaches, "as in Adam all die" (1 Corinthians 15verses22). But the same verse in Corinthians teaches, "even so in Christ shall all be made alive". There is in Genesis 5 one man for whom the words, "and he died" are not written - that is Enoch, whose days of "walking with God" (said twice) resulted in his being taken from the scene of death (cp Hebrews 11verses5). Amos 3verses3 says, "Can two walk together unless they are agreed? “This means that God and Enoch walked together as one; as did Jesus and His Father (Genesis 22verses8). Jude tells us that Enoch was the seventh from Adam, and therefore, as the man of covenant, typical of the Lord Jesus Christ. The probable death Enoch escaped, by God taking him away to another location, was the intended murder of Enoch at the hands of Lamech. The chapter also tells of the man, who lived longer than any other -Methuselah (969 years); whose name contains a prophecy. His name means, "when he dies it shall be seen". In the year he died the flood came upon the earth, 1,656 years from the creation. Another significant name from Genesis 5 is Noah, whose name means "rest". The turmoil and trouble preceding the flood produced some rest in Noah's walking with God for the Almighty's mind, which had been disquieted by the evils described at the start of Genesis 6. The human imagination was continually fixed on evil. But Noah was a just i.e. upright and righteous man. Noah's life was not without sin; but his intent was on pleasing his Sovereign, by the way he walked. The story of Noah covers 4 chapters in Genesis (6- 9); and a time span of greater than 120 years. God's promise in verse 3 was to bring his judgments on the earth in 120 years' time. Noah, himself, was at this time 480 years old and without children. 2 Peter 2 tells us that God was forbearing with bringing calamity to the wicked, as His intention is to save, rather than destroy. Hebrews 11verses7 says that Noah acted in faith in order to save the family that at that time he didn't have. Sons were born to Noah after his 500th year. The remainder of chapter 6 gives details of the building of this mighty vessel, whose size compared significantly with ocean liners of the twentieth century. It was made of durable gopher wood; and waterproofed with bitumen (pitch). The Hebrew word for pitch means "to cover", or "to atone for". It was a literal saving of those within; and a parable of the salvation in God's provided ark (the Lord Jesus Christ). Peter explains the parable in 1 Peter 3verses18-22. Baptism is anordinance of the Almighty to which those believing the LORD's word submit in order to be saved(see Acts 4verses12). In this way our sins are atoned for; they are covered; and they are washed away (Acts 22verses16).

“You have heard the law that says, ‘Love your neighbor’ and hate your enemy. But I say, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you! In that way, you will be acting as true children of your Father in heaven. . . . If you love only those who love you, what reward is there for that? Even corrupt tax collectors do that much. If you are kind only to your friends, how are you different from anyone else? Even pagans do that. But you are to be perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect.” (Matthew 5:43–48 NLT) Who was on your Christmas gift list this year? Usually, we give gifts to family and friends. We want to buy gifts for people we love and people we care about. We tend to give gifts to those who treat us well, people who are kind and considerate to us. And often we will give gifts in return for gifts that we have received. Some of us will even buy gifts for our pets. However, we generally don’t buy gifts for our enemies, do we? We don’t give a gift to the person who has slandered us in the past year. We don’t give a gift to the irate neighbor who never has a kind word to say. We don’t give a gift to someone who has tried to run us out of business. Nor do we send a gift to the thief who broke into our car last month. Yet that’s the standard to which the Lord calls us. In Matthew 5:43–48, Jesus said, “You have heard the law that says, ‘Love your neighbor’ and hate your enemy. But I say, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you! In that way, you will be acting as true children of your Father in heaven. . . . If you love only those who love you, what reward is there for that? Even corrupt tax collectors do that much. If you are kind only to your friends, how are you different from anyone else? Even pagans do that. But you are to be perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect” (NLT). How can the Lord hold us to such high expectations? “We love each other because he loved us first” (1 John 4:19 NLT). When God sent Jesus Christ, His Son, and gave us the ultimate gift, He gave it to us while we were still His enemies. The Bible tells us, “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8 NKJV). We did nothing whatsoever to merit or deserve this gift. In fact, what we really deserve is judgment, because we all have sinned against God. We all have deliberately crossed that line. The amazing truth of Christmas is that, despite our sins, God sent His Son to save us. In that tiny manger in Bethlehem, He gave us a gift that we don’t deserve—but that we can be thankful for every day of our lives. Reflection question: This Christmas season, how can you show love to someone you don’t get along with?

What exactly are the “good works” believers are created for? This teaching shows how the Torah defines and equips good works (2 Tim 3:16–17), why Yeshua upholds the Law (Matt 5:17–19), and how the Spirit empowers obedience (Ezek 36:27; Rom 8:4). Scriptures (4–6): Ephesians 2:8–10; 2 Timothy 3:16–17; Matthew 5:16–19; Ezekiel 36:27; Romans 8:4; Revelation 14:12 Takeaway (1–2 sentences): We're not saved by works—we're saved for works Scripture defines. In Yeshua, by the Spirit, we walk in Torah-shaped love (John 14:15; 1 John 5:3).#goodworks #CreatedForGoodWorks #119Ministries #TestEverything #Bible
