The Way of Jesus—Matthew 5:17–20
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This sermon emphasizes that while rules are good and necessary, they cannot transform our hearts—only a relationship with Jesus can truly change who we are. Jesus came not to abolish the law but to fulfill it, shifting the focus from external rule-keeping to internal heart transformation and a life rooted in connection with Him. Ultimately, the Christian life is about receiving Christ’s righteousness and becoming more like Him, rather than trying to earn it through checking religious boxes.
