No one likes a faker, a hypocrite who pretends to be something they’re not. In today’s passage Jesus takes on the issue of religious and devotional hypocrisy and continues his call to a higher standard of righteousness, one that is rightly motivated in its acts of devotion. Join us!

In today’s passage we are presented with six illustrative examples of how mere conformity to the “letter of the law” enabled followers to believe they were righteous, when in fact, their hearts were nowhere near God. Jesus shows us that while the “letter of the law” is important, it is only the beginning of what God’s law requires, which is absolute perfection.

"What is the relationship with Jesus (and the New Testament) to that of the Old Testament?” This is a question that has been asked since, well, the ministry of Jesus! Join us as we hear from Jesus himself about how he and his ministry relate to the Old Testament.

In today’s passage we are introduced to the “golden chain of salvation” and how this establishes the basis for our assurance in the faith. When we are beset with doubts or accusations that would derail us, or diminish our joy in our salvation, reflect on the fact that because Sola Gratia is true, then what God has both willed and accomplished for you will never fail.

People often ask, “what is the Gospel?” In today’s passage we are presented with a glorious summary of of what we mean when we speak of the Gospel. In these verses we learn that Sola Gratia isn’t merely an observation about our particular understanding of the Gospel, but instead is fundamentally central to the Bible’s own declarations about it.
