Yet, it is the most critical doctrine a believer must understand after salvation by grace. Listen as I try to help you understand this critical teaching of the New Testament.

Cooper apologizes for incorrect teaching about "Grace." Sets the record straight. Grace in salvation is not the same as grace in sanctification!

Six times in the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus warns his disciples about rewards. Instead of doing deeds to be praised by men which ensures you will have no reward with God, Jesus commands us to live to receive praise from God. Mathew, the gospel of rewards, has a sobering message for us today!

The nature of the people Jesus describes as citizens of his coming Kingdom rule are not your typical everyday run of mill folk. In fact, they are the opposite of what the world describes as successful people. Strive to be the people Christ wants you to be and you will be happy with his commendation, exaltation, and Honoration when his kingdom comes. Otherwise, you may be shocked and very disappointed at your disposition at the judgment seat of Christ.

To properly understand the Sermon on the Mount, you must understand what is a disciple and what was the meaning of the term 2000 years ago when Jesus began his ministry.

In this episode we look at the fundamental difference between the Gospel of Matthew and the Gospel of John. Matthew is concerned about the Gospel of God. John is focused on the Gospel of Christ. Do you understand the difference?

Even if you don't understand, you do want to reign with Christ in his kingdom. However, it is not automatic. You have got to earn it!
