Monday of the Second Week of Lent

Patrick Boatwright, Ryan Diaz, Antony Jeffares

We begin Lent with blessed ashes being placed upon our foreheads. The ashes remind us to keep our mortality daily before us, so that we press into Christ everyday as if that one day is all we have to experience Him and His wondrous healing in our lives. And, in the Old Covenant, God's people would put on sackcloth and pour ashes over their heads. This was always an external sign of internal suffering. It always accompanied the cry for mercy and relief from God. So, we walk into Lent invited by God to return to Him, come to Him. Come to Him with our pains, sufferings, wounded consciences. For He is the God of mercy Who delights in giving mercy to all who return to Him.

Especially during thia time

Blessed Are the Merciful Description: In this message from the Sermon on the Mount, Pastor Eric teaches why mercy is both an impossibility in the flesh and a lived reality through Jesus Christ and the daily filling of the Holy Spirit. Mercy doesn't go to the deserving—by definition it goes to the guilty. And the only way into the Kingdom is through the mercy of God poured out through the cross of Christ. From there, God expects His children to resemble their Father: to forgive, to bless, and to do good even when it's costly. Pastor Eric explains the difference between vertical forgiveness (releasing vengeance to God) and horizontal forgiveness (restoring relationship when there is repentance), and why mercy given is mercy multiplied—“pressed down, shaken together, and running over.” If you're carrying deep wounds, this sermon does not minimize the pain. It points to the only place real mercy is found—and the only power that can make it possible. Key Scriptures: Matthew 5:7 Luke 6:27–38 Luke 17:1–10 John 1:1, 14 2 Corinthians 5:21 1 Peter 2:24 John 10:27–30 Romans 12:19 In This Sermon: Why the Sermon on the Mount is “Kingdom law” and impossible without Christ Mercy as the doorway into the Kingdom: undeserved and unearned Salvation explained: what it means to be “saved” and why Jesus is the only Rescuer Mercy and love: inseparable, practical, and Christlike The call to love enemies and bless those who curse “Increase our faith” and Jesus' answer: you already have faith—exercise it Mercy multiplied: the measure you use will be measured back to you, pressed down and overflowing Vertical forgiveness vs. horizontal forgiveness Repentance, rebuke, restoration, and rebuilding trust over time Next Step: Ask God to do what you cannot do: fill you with His mercy so you can release vengeance to Him, forgive from a free heart, and be ready to extend mercy when repentance comes.

In this episode, we focus on the beatitude, “Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy,” where we're invited to honestly wrestle honestly with our resistance to mercy—how resentment, anger, envy, and scorekeeping quietly shape our relationships, especially with those closest to us. By tracing how Jesus defines and embodies mercy throughout Matthew's Gospel—and ultimately at the cross—we're invited to move beyond a transactional view of God and discover mercy not as sacrifice or divine bookkeeping, but as God's covenant love in action. The question at the center is both personal and practical: Have we truly received mercy—and what would it look like to become people who live it? Recorded February 22, 2026.

On this episode of The Jason Jones Show, Jason speaks with Valentyna Pavsyukova, founder of Chalice of Mercy, about faith, mercy, and defending life amid the challenges facing Ukraine. Born in 1983 in Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine, Valentyna grew up without religion but carried a deep desire to know God. Sustained by her grandmother's simple prayer of the Our Father, she eventually encountered the Catholic Church and entered it in 2007. That spiritual journey led her to found Chalice of Mercy, a nonprofit dedicated to presenting God as a Merciful and Loving Father and defending the sanctity of life from conception through concrete acts of service.

Listen to Pastor Brett's sermon on 2 Corinthians 1:23-24.

Series: God's Promises, Our JourneyTitle: "What happens when we rest in God's unshakable promises?"Scripture: Genesis 13:1-18 NIV Matthew 6:331 Corinthians 2:14-3:32 Corinthians 4:16-18James 3:13-4:102 Peter 2:7-8Bottom line: When God's people trust His promises, they can release what they see and rest in what He has said. OrFaith chooses promise over possession.INTRODUCTIONCONTEXTSERMON OUTLINECONCLUSIONNOTESOUTLINESQUESTIONS TO CONSIDER DISCUSSION QUESTIONSMAIN REFERENCES USEDMy opening prayer: Lord God, help us grow to be and do like Jesus, while abiding in him and leading others to do the same. INTRODUCTIONWhen I was in high school, I was encouraged by my dad to go to a good college to get a good job. A noble endeavor, as I saw it.In college I chose an engineering degree that would provide for that vision.I was focusing on what I could see. I wasn't focused on what I could not see.When God called me into the ministry, he called me out of a career of engineering. I'd been practicing civil engineering as a consultant for five years, and had finally found my footing and was beginning to be productive in the eyes of the company. I finally felt like I belonged. God called me out of that into full-time ministry and I never really questioned the money piece. In other words by God's grace, I was able to look past the money to the Ministry that God was calling me too. I was able to walk by Faith instead of my sight.In this passage today, Genesis 13 we'll see a contrast between Abram and Lot. Lot will choose based on what he sees. Abram chooses based on the promises of God.When we trust in God's unshakable promises, we will release what we see, and rest in what he has said instead.What are some of those promises?God is ableGod hearsGod seesGod is with usGod caresGod satisfiesGod approvesThese are just some of the many promises throughout scripture that you and I have to bank on when we rest in him. Let's look at the life and the contrast of Abram and Lot and see how it plays out in chapter 13.CONTEXTWe've gone from Promises of blessings to failure to rest in those promises to returning to the original promise keeper through repentance and faith.Abram went down to Egypt but returned to between "House of Bread" and "Ruin". It is here he and Lot part ways. He watches Lot choose what he thinks is best for him and yet outside of God's promised land. No doubt he knows this. He just doesn't believe it or realize it.Genesis 13 contrasts Abram's faith-shaped restraint with Lot's sight-driven ambition—and places both under the canopy of God's covenant faithfulness.SERMONReview from Genesis 12:1-3:God Is the Initiator of RedemptionGod Calls His People to Trust Him Before They Understand HimGod's Blessing Is Never Merely Personal—It Is MissionalGod Promises to Anchor His People in Uncertain Times & PlacesGod's People Respond with Obedience, Worship, and WitnessMy notes on Gen 13:God is.../God does...Merciful / forgives, restoresWest, spiritually (10) / Draws his people west, spiritually (10)Holy, just judge (10) / judges righteously (10)Permissive / allowed us to make mistakes and even sinFaithful (14-17) / kept his promise (14-17)Omnipotent (14-17) / able to deliver on his promise (14-17)Worthy of our worship (18) / Receives our worship w/ pleasure when by grace through faith (18)People are.../People do...Can be faithful, humble (3-4) / repent, return to the Lord (3-4); call on the name of the Lord (4)Tempted by riches (5, 10-11) / Pursue riches over God and end up in dark places (5, 10-11)Divided, greedy (6-7) / Quarrelsom (6-7)A witness to the world (7b) / A good or poor witness (7b)Gracious; magnanimous (8-9) / yield to the underserving (8-9)Brothers & sisters of humanity & sometimes in Christ (8) / Care about each other (8) or notLost; citizens of this world; born sinners (10-13) / Pursue the things of this world (10-13)Faithful (at times), blessed (14-17) / Obedient, humble, grateful, faithful, believing (14-17)Content for, yearn for God's presence (18) / Seek, pursue, rest in the Lord (18)CONCLUSIONBottom line: When God's people trust His promises, they can release what they see and rest in what He has said."Fellow believers (Abram's spiritual seed), when we truly believe the promises that are ours in Christ, when we truly understand and believe that we are seated right now in him in the heavenly places, when we understand that all things are ours in Christ, we will cease our grasping. As Alexander Maclaren put it:The less of our energies are consumed in asserting ourselves, and scrambling for our rights, and cutting in before other people, so as to get the best places for ourselves, the more we shall have to spare for better things; and the more we live in the future, and leave God to order our ways, the more shall our souls be wrapped in perfect peace.'" -Hughes, pp. 200-201INVITATIONPeter puts it all in perspective in his first sermon:““Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah.” When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.”” ‭‭Acts‬ ‭2‬:‭36‬-‭39‬ ‭NIV‬‬How do we respond? Answer 2 questions:Take out a card or piece of paper right now. Write down the answer to these questions: What is God saying to me right now?What am I going to do about it? Write this down on a sheet of paper. What I hear you saying, Lord, is ___________________.[my name] is going to believe/do __________________________________________________ as a result.Finally, share this with your Home or Mission group this week when you gather as a testimony about what God is doing in your life. You don't have to get too specific to give him praise.Lord's Supper, 1 Cor 11:23-26 is good passage.Also, say something like, "Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again." (past, present, and future)PrayNOTESThe Apostle Paul talks about 3 kinds of people in the world somewhere in 1 Corinthians I think. Lost people, carnal Christians, and spiritual Christians. I think I read this in a Warren Wiersbe commentary pointing to Lot as a carnal Christian when considering 2 Peter 2:7-8. Does Paul say this?Short answer by ChatGPT:Yes, Paul does describe three kinds of people in 1 Corinthians 2–3 — but he does not present them as three permanent classes of Christians.He contrasts unbelievers with two conditions of believers.That distinction matters.Where Paul says this1 Corinthians 2:14–3:3 (flow of thought)Paul uses three Greek adjectives:ψυχικός (psychikos) — natural / unspiritualπνευματικός (pneumatikos) — spiritualσάρκινος / σαρκικός (sarkinos / sarkikos) — fleshly / carnalThese form the three categories you're remembering.The Three Types Explained1. Natural person — unbeliever (2:14)This person:does not receive the things of the Spiritconsiders them foolishlacks spiritual discernmentThis is clearly outside Christ.Paul is describing someone without the Spirit.So this one is not debated.2. Spiritual person — mature believer (2:15–16)This person:discerns spiritual realitieshas “the mind of Christ”is walking under the Spirit's influenceThis is what we might call:matureSpirit-ledgrowingresponsive to GodThis is Paul's goal for every believer.3. Fleshly / carnal believer — immature believer (3:1–3)This is the key text:Paul says to the Corinthians (paraphrasing):I could not speak to you as spiritual people, but as fleshly people, as infants in Christ… you are still fleshly… there is jealousy and strife among you.Notice carefully:He still calls them “in Christ.”So they are:savedbut immaturebehaving like unbelieversdominated by worldly patternsThis is not a third ontological class — it's stunted growth.So what is Paul actually teaching?Here's the most accurate way to state it:Not:❌ Three fixed types of peopleBut:✅ Two groups (unbelievers vs believers), with believers living in two possible conditions (spiritual or fleshly)In other words:CategorySpiritual StatusConditionNaturalUnregenerateCannot understandCarnalRegenerateImmature / worldlySpiritualRegenerateMature / Spirit-ledWhere Wiersbe and others get “three kinds of people”Teachers like Warren W. Wiersbe simplify Paul's language pedagogically.It's a teaching framework, not Paul's formal taxonomy.Helpful for preaching.But not meant as rigid categories.Your Lot connection (2 Peter 2:7–8)This is actually a good biblical illustration.Peter calls Lot:“righteous”yet compromiseddistressedliving foolishly in SodomSo:justified positionallybut practically worldlyThat fits the carnal/immature believer concept very well.So Wiersbe's use of Lot is pastorally reasonable.Theologically important clarificationSome traditions mistakenly build a doctrine like:“There are three kinds of Christians: saved, carnal, and spiritual.”Paul does not teach that.His point is corrective:“You should be spiritual by now — but you're acting fleshly.”It's rebuke, not classification.He expects growth.Bottom lineYes — Paul does describe:natural peoplefleshly believersspiritual believersBut he is describing spiritual maturity levels, not permanent types.The “carnal Christian” is:not a category to settle intobut a condition to repent from.If you want, we can next:look at the Greek terms more closelycompare with Romans 8 (flesh vs Spirit)or explore whether “carnal Christian” is the best phrase theologically (some scholars push back on that wording)or build a teaching/diagram you could use in a sermon or classWhere would you like to go deeper?OUTLINESQUESTIONS TO CONSIDERWhat do I want them to know?

We explore the Bible's language of mercy, the Old Testament heartbeat of God's steadfast love, and why Jesus places mercy right in the middle of the Beatitudes. In a culture that rewards outrage, shaming, and payback, this episode calls us into a Kingdom way of living where truth and compassion belong together. You'll also get practical, doable steps for practicing mercy—through your words, your relationships, and even your boundaries—so your life can reflect the heart of the Father. 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

The post Blessed Are The Merciful – Matthew 5:7 – February 1, 2026 first appeared on Enduring Word.

Sermon for the Fourth Sunday after the Epiphany (A) Sunday, 1 February A+D 2026 Rev. Matthew D. Ruesch

1. Messiah's Office as Priest 2. Our Office as Priest The sermon centers on the truth that Christ, as the eternal High Priest, fulfills the Old Testament priestly office by sanctifying humanity through His sacrifice, enabling believers to enter God's presence. Drawing from Exodus 19 and Hebrews 13, it emphasizes that the priest's essential work is not merely sacrifice, but the preparation of God's people for holy fellowship by sanctifying them, interceding for them, and bringing them into God's presence. In the New Testament, this reality is fulfilled in Christ, who is both the perfect sacrifice and the eternal intercessor, and believers are now called a 'royal priesthood' (1 Peter 2:9), called to sanctify themselves, draw near to God in worship and prayer, offer spiritual sacrifices of praise and thanksgiving, and intercede for others. The sermon calls the congregation to live out this priestly identity with humility and intentionality, rejecting the notion that personal holiness is earned, while embracing the grace of Christ's imputed righteousness as the foundation for a life of continual devotion, sacrifice, and love toward others.

Then the word of the Lord came to Jonah the second time, saying, 2 “Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and call out against it the message that I tell you.” 3 So Jonah arose and went to Nineveh, according to the word of the Lord. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city, three days' journey in breadth.4 Jonah began to go into the city, going a day's journey. And he called out, “Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown!” 5 And the people of Nineveh believed God. They called for a fast and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them to the least of them. 6 The word reached the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, removed his robe, covered himself with sackcloth, and sat in ashes. 7 And he issued a proclamation and published through Nineveh, “By the decree of the king and his nobles: Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste anything. Let them not feed or drink water, 8 but let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and let them call out mightily to God. Let everyone turn from his evil way and from the violence that is in his hands. 9 Who knows? God may turn and relent and turn from his fierce anger, so that we may not perish.” 10 When God saw what they did, how they turned from their evil way, God relented of the disaster that he had said he would do to them, and he did not do it.
