During three weeks, we will look at Matthew 6:1-18, moving from the outside toward the Lord’s Prayer in the middle. First we considered Jesus’ warnings about hypocrisy: doing the right things in order to receive human applause. Jesus called us rather to focus on the divine audience and receive grace upon grace from God.
God has always been with his people, in various ways and temporarily in Old Testament times and later and permanently in human flesh.
Christians need to walk wisely by being filled in the Holy Spirit.
No matter how long we have been Christians, we can always keep growing more and more in purity and love.
