Matthew 7: Sermon on the Mount

Principle of Judging

  • To “judge” means to pass judgment or a sentence.
  • Judging can be stopped if we carefully examine our: Motivation, Attitude, Life and Protection
  • Discerning a false prophet.

Principles of Prayer

  • Three keys: ASK, SEEK AND KNOCK
  • Results come from ACTION.
    • James 4:2 . . . ye have not, because ye ask not.
  • God knows how to give good things to those who ASK.

The Golden Rule

  • The Golden Rule is not passive, it is ACTIVE!
  • Proverbs 3:27 Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of thine hand to do it.
  • This fulfills the law and prophets

Principle of Obedience

  • God has a requirement – OBEDIENCE.
  • Religious activity is not enough, God wants to KNOW us.
  • The reward for obedience:
    • You will be called wise
    • You will be able to weather storms
    • You will be forever “with” God.
