Sermon on the Mount
163: Depart From Me! (Walking with Jesus Series, #026: Matt. 7:15-23)
Are we to inspect the “fruit” of professing believers to determine if they are truly saved? Pastor Hollandsworth discusses this frequently misunderstood concept, reveals the identity of wolves in sheep’s clothing, and describes who will hear the awful verdict, “Depart from Me!”
162: Taking the Road Less Traveled (Walking with Jesus Series, #025: Matt. 7:13-14, 24-27)
Does the narrow way lead to Heaven and the broad way lead to Hell? Most seem to think so. Pastor Hollandsworth shows that this cannot be, given the context of the Sermon on the Mount. Rather, this is a sanctification text that poses a challenge for believers.
161: Measuring with the Golden Rule (Walking with Jesus Series #024: Matt. 7:1-12)
Few believers live by the Golden Rule, yet it is one of the qualifications for kingdom inheritance. Pastor Hollandsworth gives the meaning of the rule and four ways we can keep it.
159: No Worries (Walking with Jesus Series #023: Matt. 6:25-34)
Jesus admonishes disciples not to worry, for worry is unbelief and never changes anything. Pastor Hollandsworth gives a biblical definition of worry, describes its negative physical effects on the body, and explains the importance of seeking first God’s kingdom and righteousness as the biblical alternative.
158: Laying Up Heavenly Treasures (Walking with Jesus Series #022: Matt. 6:19-24)
No one can serve two masters. Jesus wants our undivided loyalty. Pastor Hollandsworth equates laying up heavenly treasures with earning age-lasting rewards, the means by which we glorify Jesus, making Him our number one priority in life.
