The Commands of Christ Podcast

It has been said that “things are as God sees them, and not as they seem to me.” And John 7:24 says, “Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.” One key aspect of this command to “Judge Not” is that we are not to judge things from our own point of view or preferences, but we are to allow God to bring us into agreement with His perspective.

When we take it on ourselves to cast judgment on others, we are putting ourselves in the place of God. There IS a good and righteous Judge, and it is vital for us to allow Him to re-calibrate our inner sense of justice according to His heart, His Word, and His law. Then He is able to use us to restore those around us.

While God does lead us to have jobs and work hard, our trust should never be in ourselves or in a paycheck. Join Nate and Gabe as they discuss how we can truly trust and lean on our Heavenly Father to provide for us.

Do you really believe that your heavenly Father cares for you? And with that, do you really believe that He knows about the needs that you have?

What are you setting your mind on? It is so easy to get caught up in the cares and anxieties of “normal life.” However Romans 14:17 says, “the kingdom of God is…righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit”. Setting our mind on the Lord and His word produces “kingdom thoughts” in us - and these thoughts are characterized by peace, joy, and rightness with God!

Do you really believe that your heavenly Father cares for you? And with that, do you really believe that He knows about the needs that you have? And do you really trust that if you make it your top priority to seek first God’s Kingdom that He will provide for your every need? He has promised to! We can trust Him.

A kingdom is a jurisdictional area where a king reigns as king! So when Jesus commands us to “seek first the kingdom of God'', He is casting a beautiful vision for our everyday lives. Our lives are not meant to be consumed by anxiety and worry, but rather, to be consumed with seeking the will of the King! As we do this, He promises to take care of even the most basic needs of our lives.

What is one of the most valuable treasures that we have? Join Nate and Gabe as they talk about the treasure of our time. What we spend our time on both reveals what we love and becomes what we love.

At the heart of this command is the question: will I have an eternal mindset or will I have a temporal mindset? Our mindset will determine what we see is valuable (i.e., what we treasure). In this command we will explore Jesus’ encouragement to invest our lives in that which cannot be destroyed or taken away.

What do you see as valuable and does it determine your identity? If we let the Lord search us, often we will find that we place a wrong focus on temporal things - our job, our position, our possessions, even our clothes! God desires us to be free from the bondage of an earthly mindset and have our focus set on eternity.

Have you ever sought to fill a void in your life by trying to gain the approval of others but found the void only became greater? In this guest episode, Dr. Lew Sterrett shares how God used a tragic experience in his early childhood to set his life on a course of finding complete acceptance and approval in His Heavenly Father.

One of the greatest needs mankind possesses is to find the acceptance of someone who genuinely loves, cares and receives  them. God has graciously met this need, and He has done so through providing a way that all mankind can know Him! Listen as Gabe and our guest, Dr. Lew Sterrett, discuss the keys of finding our approval, love and affirmation in God through a personal relationship with Christ.
