The Common Sense Gospel

"Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again in with a yoke of bandage. For you brethren have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another." Galatians 5:1 and 13.

We have concluded the five major discourses of Matthew! In our pursuit of learning more about Jesus, we will turn to the gospel of Mark and look at the special things that he has for us concerning our Lord and Savior. We also have some exciting news about a new hymn!!!

As the fifth and final discourse of Jesus comes to a close, Jesus will tell us what the day of judgment will look like and what we need to know before it comes. We encourage you to be kind and to love the least of these Christ's brethren.

As we move through Galatians 4, the apostle Paul will continue to show the Christians in Galatia, not only that the law won't justify them, but that the law itself shows us that there is bondage under the fleshly ordinances that are found there. He will use Abraham, Sarah, and Hagar to further explain this important truth.

In Lightning Round Question 18, we have an excellent question about helping the people we love who may be sad or depressed. Here are some excellent passages to help you with that.

In today's episode we will read through and study the famous parable of the talents. This parable today, helps us understand what it means to be ready for His return and how we should be doing it.

We have been following the reasoning of the apostle Paul as he begs the Galatian brethren to see the error of their ways and come back to Jesus. In chapter 4, we will see him continue that plea and we will see how much he loves them and how much they love him. There is a lot of godly love in this chapter.

Jesus has been stressing to us the importance of being faithful and being ready for Him when He comes. Today, He will give us the parable of the 10 virgins and why five of them were wise and five of them were foolish.

Today, we will read through the second half of Galatians 3 and watch Paul further develop his argument against the keeping of the law. "The law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith." Galatians 3:24

This Lightning Round Question is a question that is often asked and discussed in many different ways. Today, Kurt will give us a Scriptural answer that will help us whenever this topic arises in daily conversation or when authority is being discussed within the Lord's church.
