    Judging. We have whole TV shows dedicated to judging, whole archetypal characters who embody the judgy attitude. But if we're honest, we all have a streak in us to make judgements about all kinds of things: is this person safe, is that menu item worth trying, is she really wearing that?! Not all judging is bad, but how do we tell the difference? Jesus stepped up on a mountainside and delivered the best sermon ever. But it was more than a sermon, it was a vision of what life is like under God's rule. We want to see God's Kingdom come, God's will be done in our cities as it is in heaven.

    Bible Verse: “But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you…” - Matthew 5:43-47 (NIV) ✨ Daily Meditation: In today’s profound devotional, Jaime Hampton, host of Praying Christian Women Podcast., explores one of Jesus’ most radical and challenging teachings: loving our enemies. This message, drawn from the Sermon on the Mount, calls us not only to tolerate but to bless, pray for, and show compassion to those who oppose or hurt us. We are reminded that our real enemy is not flesh and blood, but the spiritual forces of evil (Ephesians 6:12). When we shift from retaliation to intercession, we begin to see others through God’s eyes — as image-bearers, not adversaries. It’s in these moments of surrendered love that God does His deepest transformative work in us and through us.

    Timothy Keller Sermons Podcast by Gospel in Life

    If we actually take the gospel, the essential message of Jesus Christ, and we live it out, what will it look like? That's what the Sermon on the Mount is about.  And in this part of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, we get to the area of money and possessions.  Jesus tells us three things we can draw out here: 1) how money exercises power over us, 2) why money exercises power over us, and 3) how we can break the power. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on May 2, 1999. Series: The Mount; Life in the Kingdom. Scripture: Matthew 6:19-34.

    Pastor Lonnie's message introduces a series on the Sermon on the Mount, emphasizing that Jesus' main message is about spiritual transformation rather than just religious deeds. It urges us to move beyond feelings of defeat and despair into a life filled with spiritual abundance, joy, and purpose. Focusing on Matthew 5:1-12, it explains the Beatitudes and illustrates how happiness often arises from unexpected qualities: humility, mourning, meekness, a hunger for righteousness, mercy, purity, peacemaking, and enduring persecution. These traits, although often conflicting with cultural norms, reveal a deeper joy and meaning. 

    Timothy Keller Sermons Podcast by Gospel in Life

    On the surface, one of the most unattractive things about Christianity to our culture today is its view of sex; but if you look underneath the surface and get a better grasp on what is really taught, the Christian view of sex is one of the most attractive things about it. In other words, a lot of people see the Christian understanding of sex as undermining its credibility to them, but when you look down deeper, I think you're actually going to see the Christian view of sex is one of the evidences for its truth. Because Christianity accounts for how sex operates in our lives, in our relationships, and in our society. Let's draw out four things Jesus is saying about this in the Sermon on the Mount: 1) there is such a thing as lust, 2) what it's not, 3) what it is, and 4) how it can be healed. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on April 25, 1999. Series: The Mount; Life in the Kingdom. Scripture: Matthew 5:27-30.

But of all the decisions of life we find ourselves making – none are more important than whether one will enter the Narrow Gate that leads to Eternal Life – or the Wide Gate that leads to eternal destruction.Lord Jesus revealed these two Gates with the understanding that only one willgrant entrance to Heaven's Kingdom of Eternal Life – and that is the “NarrowGate.” But He also added that only a few will enter by it.As the Return of Jesus draws so very near, the Holy Spirit is raising up His Watchmen on the Wall with the cry of “Choose you this day who you will follow.”Only two gates are open – one to Eternal Life – and the other to eternal death.May the power of God's Grace help you to – Choose wisely!Support the showVisit our website: https://agapelightministries.com/

    How do you know what you really treasure? Jesus says the evidence hides in three everyday choices—where you store wealth, what you fix your eyes on, and whom you ultimately obey. In this week's Red Letters message, Pastor Kelly Kinder walks through Matthew 6:19-24 and invites us to run a spiritual forensic audit.Earthly vs. Heavenly Deposits — Kelly retells the tragic case of Bertha Adams, who died penniless while hoarding millions, to underscore Jesus' warning that earthly assets are always one moth, one recession, or one hacker away from ruin. Heavenly deposits—acts of love, mercy, and gospel generosity—grow compound joy in a realm no thief can enter.Clear vs. Clouded Vision — The eye, Jesus says, is the lamp of the body. A “healthy” or single-minded eye fills life with clarity and purpose; a “bad” or greedy eye leaves even successful people stumbling in darkness. Kelly challenges us to check our digital diets: Do our screens train us to give or to crave?God vs. Money — Jesus ends the debate: “You cannot serve two masters.” Money is a brilliant servant but a brutal boss. When it calls the shots, anxiety skyrockets and generosity shrivels. Kelly offers three practical moves: automate first-fruits giving, set lifestyle ceilings below income ceilings, and convert talents or hobbies into kingdom blessing.We are Trinity Community Church in Knoxville, Tennessee.Subscribe to our Podcast & YouTube channel to find past sermons, classes, interviews, and more!Find us on Facebook & Instagram

    Timothy Keller Sermons Podcast by Gospel in Life

    Do you understand what your heart is really like? In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus is saying that the reason we're inauthentic or hiding from other people is because we're actually being inauthentic with ourselves, hiding from ourselves. We're deeply uncomfortable with the reality of our own hearts. Jesus wouldn't mention hypocrisy in the Sermon on the Mount unless he thought it was a pervasive issue, something we're all struggling with. Jesus says this is the way we are, that there's a real problem and the human heart desperately wants to get into image management. Let's look at how Jesus shows us 1) two manifestations of hypocrisy, 2) how you can't stand to see what's in your own heart, 3) how you know the plank in your own heart is huge, and 4) how to remove the plank from your heart. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on April 18, 1999. Series: The Mount; Life in the Kingdom. Scripture: Luke 6:39-49.

    What did Yeshua mean when he said looking at a woman with lustful intent is adultery in the heart? Was he setting an impossible standard—or affirming the Tenth Commandment against coveting? This powerful teaching explores Matthew 5:27–30 with Torah context and clarity, addressing the heart behind sexual sin. In this teaching, we unpack Yeshua's words in Matthew 5 about lustful intent. Many have interpreted this passage as setting an unattainable moral bar—but does that reflect what the Torah and Yeshua actually say? By examining the language of coveting in Exodus 20, the grammar of Matthew, and related Scripture from James and Genesis, we see that Yeshua is affirming an existing commandment, not raising the bar to impossible heights. This message also speaks clearly to the issues of pornography, inner desires, and modern application—calling believers to redirect their hearts and intentions toward righteousness. Spiritual Takeaway -  Yeshua isn't condemning desire itself—he's calling us to align our hearts with Torah, refusing to covet what is forbidden and walking in holiness by the Spirit.

    Timothy Keller Sermons Podcast by Gospel in Life

    As soon as you hear the word relationships, right away you say, “Ah, relationships,” and you think of friendship or romance. But the main purpose of the Sermon on the Mount is to talk about our relationships to other people, to those outside of our close relationships. Right away, Jesus talks about three groups of people. And when we see how Jesus calls us to be toward them, we're immediately shocked and upset. Many of us will say, “First of all, I can't do it. And if I did, it sounds terrible.” And almost as if Jesus knows we'll say that, he tells us three things. Let's look at 1) the three groups of people: people who oppose us, people who are less fortunate than us, and people who are different from us, and then 2) the three things Jesus tells us: the difficulty we have, the inner dynamic we need, and the directions we're given. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on April 11, 1999. Series: The Mount; Life in the Kingdom. Scripture: Luke 6:27-38.

    We've been on a journey through the book of James, constantly challenged to not just be hearers of the Word but doers—to look into the Bible as a mirror and examine ourselves, not as a magnifying glass to inspect the flaws of others.This week, James 4:1-10 confronts us with a deeper truth: our outward struggles are a reflection of inward battles. Many people seek therapy to change behavior, and while behavior modification has its place, true transformation happens at the heart level.Jesus, in the Sermon on the Mount, taught that sin is not just about actions—it begins in the heart. James follows this same line of thinking, exposing the root cause of conflict, pride, and spiritual stagnation.The question we must ask today is: Are we trying to modify our behavior, or are we allowing God to transform our hearts?Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/ignitedfortitude/donations

    Throughout this series, we've been learning from the Sermon on the Mount and how Jesus took Old Testament teachings and further revealed the heart of God. One of the most impactful moments is in Matthew 5:43 when Jesus teaches that it's not about “identifying our enemies,” but ensuring we don't become enemies ourselves. It isn't about drawing lines between who deserves love and who doesn't, but erasing those lines completely. By loving our enemies, we not only prevent ourselves from becoming what we hate but potentially transform both ourselves and our relationships.

    A Florida pastor offers a truly divine "testimony" of receiving a hefty $10,000 gift, allegedly for his fervent political endorsements, raising all sorts of holy hell about the blurred lines between pulpit and politics. This "blessing" isn't for charity, mind you, but for his personal coffers, sparking debate on whether this is divine intervention or just good old-fashioned grifting. Join us as we dissect this unholy union of faith and finance, exposing the alarming trend of religious organizations exploiting their tax-exempt status for personal and political gain, proving yet again that for some, the pursuit of earthly riches trumps spiritual integrity. It's a sermon on the mount of money, leaving us to wonder: is this divine prosperity, or just a new level of religious scam?.News Source: MAGA Pastor Brags About Receiving $10,000 For Supporting Trump By Black Information Network for BIN: Black Information Network June 23, 2025

    Jesus continues his Sermon on the Mount with one of his most famous exhortations ever: "Love your enemies." As we explore this radical call it illuminates the very nature of love that pours into our hearts through the Spirit and pours out of us indiscriminately to all those in our lives, even those who are hostile toward us. Application Questions: 1. In what ways do you understand God's love through the lens of our upside-down world? 2. What are examples of natural (reciprocal) love you can point to in your life?3. What opportunities do you have to show supernatural love? 4. Who is hostile toward you or opposed to you (or people like you) that might be who Jesus is referring to when he talks about "enemies"?5. How is God calling you to love differently this week?

    One of the things that has accompanied the rise of the internet and our online connections via social media is an ever-increasing angst over social comparisons – something that has been ringing alarm bells for mental health professionals. The other side of that tends to be the phenomena of “virtue signaling”; expressing opinions or making posts that intimate that a person is deeply concerned and doing something about whatever the latest problem or injustice happens to be (which usually involves posting something or changing a profile picture). Not every accusation of virtue signaling is correct – but there is a very real temptation to try and look a certain way in how we present ourselves online.Of course, this sort of posery isn't limited to social media – it saturates politics and workplaces and is present even in family dynamics – but one place that always has a bumper-crop of people trying to look better than they really are is in the realm of religion and the church.Jesus is going to deal with religious posing in the text we'll be reading this Sunday as we continue our study in Matthew. We'll be reading Matt 6:1-18.Jesus addresses three areas of spiritual devotion and highlights the temptations we face when setting out to put them into practice. He'll talk about giving, fasting and praying. We'll sort of jumble up the text on Sunday so as to keep all the themes together (making it easier for a simple-minded teacher to work his way through).If you were to summarize Jesus' warnings about giving, fasting and praying , what would you write? Who is supposed to be our primary concern when it comes to these acts of devotion? Why do you think we are so tempted to put the focus somewhere else?When we look at how Jesus taught us to pray – who are we addressing our prayers to? What title does Jesus give to God? How might we read that differently from God's other titles, such as Lord or King? How might our trust in a loving, parental Creator help curb our desire for human approval?There's a lot we'll be unpacking in this section – I hope you can join us this Sunday at 10 AM as we dig into the center of the center of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount!Click here for a pdf of the teaching slideshow.

    Timothy Keller Sermons Podcast by Gospel in Life

    Christianity is utterly different from religion. At the end of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus says there are two paths—one that leads to life and one that leads to destruction. And here's what the scary thing is: both ways have people praying, giving to the poor, obeying God's law. You can do all that and still be poison, on your way to destruction. Don't mistake Christianity for religion. Jesus says if you want to be in the kingdom of heaven, there's a gospel goodness that vastly surpasses religious righteousness. How does it surpass? Gospel goodness 1) brighter, 2) deeper, 3) sweeter, and 4) higher. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on March 28, 1999.

    Jesus introduces a revolutionary kingdom in the Sermon on the Mount. He contrasts the pattern, power, and product of two kingdoms: the old one which we are currently under, and the new one which is to come. Jesus' teaching goes against every natural instinct, and represents a reversal of the world's values. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on March 21, 1999.
